I'm planning a trip in March from Vegas. Is it better to

The only difference is the cost of the flight. It will usually be much cheaper to fly to Bellingham. You can rent a car in both cities no problem and drive over the border. Bellingham is about an hour away.

Just be yourself OP

flights to canada are traditionally expensive, customs fees and airport fees in canada do not help. rental cars aren't even that cheap, there are even surcharges for the fact that your cars have air conditioning (government charges car buyers like car rental companies and all the car rental companies pass on a charge to the renter to offset it).

i'd personally fly but flying six hours from NY to washington vs. six hours direct to vancouver would be my preference.

Noted, thanks guys. I'll probably do it from Bellingham.

Driving to from WA seems great, looks like many awesome landscapes are to be seen

I flew into Seattle and took a train to Vancouver and I really enjoyed it. The views from the train were great. It was a few years ago though, so I don't remember the prices. I definitely recommend it if you want to see both cities.

I'm a WWU kid come visit me :^)

But nah the Bellingham airport is very cheap to fly to from Vegas, lot of the students here do your trip in reverse. A little bit of personal bias here, but I'd expend a day to see the area here. Too many hikes and outdoor activities to list, definitely worth checking out

Interest is piqued. There's an airbnb open for the dates I am visiting. I did some light googling. Would you recommend nooksack falls and heather meadows? Or is there something else you had in mind that's closer?

Unless you're planning on renting skis or a snowboard, you won't want to go up Baker in the winter. If you're going in summer then Nooksack Falls would be a nice place to visit for hiking or mountain biking.

Otherwise just stay in Bellingham proper so you can see the town, bike around, go to Larabee/Whatcom Falls, etc. I guess it depends on what you're looking for.

Vancouverite here. I'd recommend flying into Vancouver simply because the airport is reeeeaaaaaaally nice.
