Definitely one of the tradeoffs to consider . I travel very frequently for work , and the flight options in and out of SAT are of course more limited than DFWIAH . On the flipside , the airport here in town is centrally located and very fast to get in and out . And for me personally , I dig SA for enough other reasons to where I can deal with the flight situation . For Boston in particular , uFucksweregiven mentioned Austin as a good option . Southwest and JetBlue each have a daily nonstop . Could be handy for family visiting in the future , though as you ' ve seen , neither of those carriers take pets in the cargo hold . <| sep |> edit TLDR what you ' re saying has nothing to do with my comment . more money is directly related to more solutionsNo , that ' s not true , in a capitalist society . All it does is find funding for potential complications . If it ' s just creating a bureaucracy that ' s capable of funding it ' s own problems , then there wouldn ' t be a gross benefit , for example . What you ' re suggesting isn ' t a reasonable capitalist position . this method is very common throughout AmericaPolitely , that ' s a nightmare thing to reference , given your position . The American toll road system is reviled . AsiaNot only is that not terribly specific , or information presented in a useful way , I ' m not sure why you ' re conflating vague Asiatic nations ' I ' m guessing national toll roads to this specific intersection , which is badly known for congestion already , is oddly networked , and is about to experience significant shifts in traffic . even more so specifically taxing those who do not pay taxes in the city they workNothing you ' re saying here is addressing what I ' ve said .
