    Commercial flight isn’t too great either. High speed rail is a lot nicer.

    Not to mention; having your own plane is cool, but is it cooler than having your own train?

        I would honestly rather spend two weeks in the bilge of a container ship than eight hours on a plane so maybe they could do that.

          well, there’s this thing called ego; when people feel themselves like way important, they like to approach things in a more exotic/exclusive way, which only few people would have access to, to keep nurturing such ego. i wouldn’t really like to spend my journey in the bilge of a ship, but i get your point and upon which i agree: commuting in all its forms sucks

        She’d have some cute overalls and one of those engineer’s caps and a smudge of dirt on her face and suddenly every woman under 30 looks like that.
