If we had this option, I can see a large market for freight business. There is no shortage of freight which has more urgency than an ocean vessel can meet, but does not have the urgency of air freight.

I can also see a substantial leisure travel market. There is a growing traveling population willing to trade in time for lower transportation costs.

That was the novelty part.

It is interesting; something to mull over. Transportation costs are undoubtedly high, with no end in sight.

The article speaks of using it to reach remote regions, such as Canada. I’m wondering about icing problems, if they are prone to this problem, how would it affect lift, etc?

Low and slow along the Pacific Coast Highway, across the Serengeti, around the Hawaiian Islands, over the Grand Canyon, across the Alps, or through the Inside Passage. Could be a very good way to travel!
