Driving, not Flying

Interesting...maybe the year of the RV?
There’s an interesting thing happen between the rate at which flying returns versus driving. It’s intuitive that people taking trips this summer would prefer to do so by car, with gasoline being cheaper and proximity to strangers being shunned. I think it could be years before we’re flying at the rates we used to.

    Some of us have no choice but to fly. But I can't complain. I knew a guy back on the Mainland, way back 20 years ago, who quit flying and drove everywhere. Too much hassle, even back then.

    When I was a child, we met an air traffic controller on the Great Northern Railroad. He loved planes. He hated airports.

    If anything is bound to get worse for the rest of us, it's air travel.
