    As somebody who flights today a 2h flight…

    checks map again

    13h hours car drive (without stops so probably more)

    checks public transport

    11h 30 in train with at least 4 or more trains changes…

    Nope… Still faster by plane, well unless they cancel it or similar …

      Flight is airport to airport. You neither live or reside at either airport. Measure door to door for a more accurate comparison, I don’t fly from my driveway to my destinations back garden when I get a plane. I have to gget to the airport on a train, check in, go through security, wait for delays, wait at baggage collection and get a cab on the other side.

      It’s not going to change the outcome but if you’re going to use numbers to measure a difference, try to consider all the facts.

        Oh yeah sure.

        In my case even adding the time on airport reaching it etc and even with my shitty connections as I live in a small town still much less. Of course that changes if there is a cancellation or similar.

        And those numbers I provided was the car/train from big city to big city near airport of departure and arrival. Not the towns I end up going to, because they are much less.communciqted and adds more time.
