I would drive 5,000 miles rather than take air transportation anywhere. Driving is tiresome, it is slow, it is expensive, but mostly, you are not constantly humiliated, poked, prodded, and generally treated like a criminal with a warrant out for immediate detention and subject to arrest at any time. And all this is before you get on the plane as a passenger, where you are jostled, forced into a cramped position, and virtually forbidden to move about at all for periods up to several hours. Upon deplaning, you are now forced to go through the terminal to a point sometimes at great distance from the gate, to wait for and reclaim luggage, which may or may not be there, then there is a process, annoying at best and something of a nightmare if real problems have taken place, like routing the luggage filled with really vital items getting sent to another location, or lost altogether, with no opportunity to have it replaced on a timely basis. All this before you get OUT of the airport.
And that is if the flights are running on schedule.
Same here. Those who don't are committing "sanction of the victim."
If everyone refused to submit, it would end.
I have no intention of ever flying again. I’d rather drive. Sure, depending on how far, driving may or may not take longer. Anything less than 6 hours of driving and you’re ahead of the game already. Farther than 6 hours and at least you can see the country, go at your own pace and not be raped by TSA or sit next to some stinky fart with ebola praising allah.
Been driving everywhere I go since June-2002. If I can’t drive, I don’t go. I may change my mind sometime, but its been 14 years so far...
