    I’ve seen what plane tickets costs. Peasants are taking the bus.

      You underestimate how expensive public transit is currently, at least in the US and Canada

        Compare cost-per-passenger-mile between Amtrak or the NYC Metro and SUV traffic on I-10 or I-35.

            Meant to be “bus traffic”. Autocorrect got me.

            Plane travel just gets more expensive from there.
