Well, Tuesday I flew back home. So many people today don't remember when flying was a pleasurable experience. I was searched and patted down. Luggage searched. My cigarette machine is kinda weird looking on x-ray.
For $60 extra bucks I get to have a seat that my legs fit in. The seats on the shuttle were more comfortable, I need to bring padding next time. And you're jammed into the passenger next to you, luckily the return trip the seat was empty so I didn't have touch anyone shoulder to shoulder.
The flight up there was a woman next to me, that's slightly less awful because they're smaller. But two men next to each other in those seats is really more contact than I want from a stranger.
It didn't used to be like that at all, used to be more like what they have for first class now.

Yeah, I'd rather drive for a couple days than take a plane. There's a billion reasons why, including the inconveniences you mentioned.
Where were you visiting?

I went to PA because my aunt died.

Nah it's cool, I barely ever met her. I went because the family would all be there. It was like a little fun vacation for me.

Ever heard of trains ? Maybe old-school but one of the few things i like is traveling by train.
I don't even like the process before stepping into a plane. The time you save on mid-range flights you spend in some lobby with overpriced food.
Train travel has its charm. You can see where you go, e.g. . You can sit without harassment and that-alike.
I know it is not appropriate for every journey but i look it up every-time nonetheless.

I love trains but never thought of taking one to get up north. That's a good idea, looks really economical too, at least until you have to rent a car.
