We actually got into a small argument with someone in our ski club about what is considered skiing internationally. We were talking about our Banff and eastern township trips. We actually were having the conversation inside the base lodge pub at Mont Orford in the eastern townships. She was dead on serious when she said that wasn't international. I think in her mind unless it's Switzerland or France or some other flying over the ocean to get there country that it didn't count. Our response was um yes sure Canada is part of north america but it's still a separate country so visiting there counts as an international destination. It was funny how appalled she was as she looked at us in disbelief in how we could possibly consider Canada international.
Hey! I met your friend at Logan airport one time! I had to fly to Canada (Toronto area) for work purposes at one point. I reached the airport, waited a year and a day in the "international departures" line, finally reached an airline agent (ssg's friend) and she asked "where are you flying today?"
Me: Toronto
Her: You need domestic departures and pointed to some other line filled with 500,000 people.
Me: Ummmm, I'm going to Toronto as in
Canada.
Her: You need domestic departures and pointed to some other line filled with 500,000 people.
Me:
Canada, as in it's another country? That would make it international?
Her: You need domestic departures and pointed to some other line filled with 500,000 people.
Me: Really? You can't help me?
Her: You need domestic departures and pointed to some other line filled with 500,000 people.
For the record, after waiting another year-and-a-day (thankfully I apparently got to the airport two years and two days in advance), they were able to get me boarding passes and all the usual stuff.
