I understand that what's done is done, but for others and for future reference, I would highly suggest more than 3 and half hours time allowance for getting to Bellingham for a flight. You should be prepared for unexpected traffic, border delays, and a busy airport security check, espcially on a long weekend.

I went down to Vegas the last week in August and had a flight in Belligham at 11:30AM. I left Surrey at 6AM, got the border around 6:45AM, cleared the border 8:00AM, arrived at the airport at 8:45AM, cleared security and was ready to fly at 9:30AM. Sure we waited for our flight at the airport for 2 hours, but at least we had plenty of time to spare in case we ran into any delays.
