I will never fly again. Never. Fuck flying. We were never meant to be in the air, comment if you are with me!
Dealing with airports and flying is a miserable experience but is unfortunately the best way overall to travel overseas/very long distances (obviously highly dependent on where in the world you are located/where you are traveling to). I avoid flying except for maybe a trip every five years where there really isn't another viable alternative. High ticket costs, crowded aitports, TSA, all the waiting with delays in boarding, taxi'ing, de-boarding etc. really just make the juice not worth the squeeze for me.
Just fly Airbus. Or Embraer. Or Bombardier. It’s still safer than driving by far.
I fully agree with you, you should not fly, since that means there will be one less person to deal with in the airport / on the plane.
Aye, I'm taking my next weekend trip from NY to Cali via car. Or by boat the kmking way around. Fuck planes!
