I hate flying too but that is totally unrealistic. Especially if you travel overseas as often as I do.

Not to mention that the economy would grind to a halt if it weren’t possible to get from one place to the other as quickly as a plane can get you there.

Same here. I always laugh at the people who have maybe flown once or twice in their lifetime telling me that not flying is a realistic option. Not for me. I fly commercially no less than 6 round trips a year and overseas at least once a year. I depend on reliable air travel. So do a lot of other people.

well flying should always be last resort
when i do go overseas it will be with a boat

but your right frequent long distance flying is unavoidable

as someone mentioned, airlines are pinching pennies to stay afloat. so what comforts me the most is that savings include turning off air filtration systems, and this is awesome, because we can transform disease with lighting speed

on the plus side, at least will breed enough immunity into frequent fliers that survive potential pandemic
