A specific date to keep in mind when booking flights is Friday the 13th, as hundreds of thousands of motorcycle riders descend on the little town of Port Dover, located just 45 minutes from Hamilton. This tradition has taken place every year since 1981 and while airfare availability may not be affected, history has shown that accommodation in surrounding areas may be hard to come by.
