I dislike flying, but when I have to, I can only fly out of Atlanta.

If it is less than a 7-1/2 to 8 hour drive, it is faster driving when you add up all of the delays and problems setting up luggage for TSA’s scanning and handling.

Door-to-door? Yeah. 8 hours driving is faster than flying.

I used to love flying...
