As a Saint Johner, I think it's really unfortunate that we don't have a reliable or even semi convenient bus that can get us to YFC or YQM for same day flights. I guess it's theoretically possible to do this on Maritime bus, but it's pretty costly, and the scheduling will not work for most flights.
It's one thing to ask a family member or friend to drive you to the airport, or take a cab, but asking them to drive you to Fredericton, let alone take a cab, is a pretty big ask unless it's for a really, good reason.
If we're not going to see the mythical combined International Airport get built between Saint John and Fredericton, I think the least the province and airlines can do is try and invest in a shuttle bus system between the main three CMAs and airports.

Funny enough YQM has never once provided a better option for me. YFC has over the years provided a better option.
Since most of my travel is corporate paid I am not price sensitive, so potentially that helps. I can also typically build my own schedule around flight times.
