An observation I’ve made over the years is that, just like with other things in life (Beatles vs Stones, Jeopardy vs Wheel, Target vs Walmart)- there are two types of people in life: Those who, given the option to reach a destination, will choose to fly there, versus those who will almost always drive... I , even prior to the pandemic, have always been a driver, as long as the destination isnt more than about an 8 hour drive all-in.. Given enough time and leisure though, i would always choose driving over flying even if the destination were clear across the country... I know people though, who feel like it’s torture to be in a car for even two or three hours, and always choose the flying option... For years, i lived in Houston and commuted for work and family visits back to NOLA an average of once per month so about a dozen times a year.. i tried the flying option, and by the time you get to the airport an hour early, possibly check bags, go through security, board, fly, then rent a car in NOLA- you’re looking at about a 4 hour commitment.. versus about a 5.5 or 6 hr drive.. and that‘s IF everything goes perfect with the airline; in my experience there was some sort of glitch or delay about 50% of the time... If driving, i can set the temperature where i want, stop when i want , eat what i want and listen to music as loud as i want ... What say you?
