Getting there
Sydney/J.A. Douglas McCurdy Airport (YQY) is the closest major commercial airport and is about a two-hour drive from Cabot Cape Breton. Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ) is roughly 3.5 hours away and generally offers more flight options; private aviation can also use Port Hawkesbury Airport, about one hour from the resort. Cabot offers private ground transportation from all three airports and can arrange helicopter transfers.
