If you compare the per hour rate without landing fees versus per hour rate with landing fees, and the training aerodromes the flying schools use (distance from en, fees if applicable) then you can get an idea of cost benefit for yourself.
A 3hr flight at $330 dual with landing included will cost more than $300 dual without landing fee- but- Ab initio training initially may work in you favour with a landing fee included.
Do the maths and get heaps of info from everybody to make your decision.
