It is hard to say whether dirigible travel would have been commercially viable, due to the slow speeds involved.

“It is hard to say whether dirigible travel would have been commercially viable, due to the slow speeds involved.”

It was a different world back then.
Slower paced. The average person didn’t even think about owning a car.
Here in the countryside the average person rarely traveled more than thirty miles from home.
Folks who relied on the horse and buggy didn’t travel far.

Still, the dirigible would have been used only by the wealthy or upper middle class.

Ocean cruises aren’t all that dependent upon transit speeds. It would be for tourism not business travel.
