Most flying lessons are local. They last about 1 hour.

Tons of small airports suffer from noise complaints. What future pilots might do is get the engine warmed up and checked out, then rely for 2 minutes or so on electric for take-off, then switch to gas at a certain altitude.
For long flights, like city to city?
Wow, I don’t forsee that any time soon. I wouldn’t do it.
