I think overall I am just shocked that trains in general are more expensive than planes.
My original argument was that planes were faster trains were cheaper and we found out while arguing that its slower in some cases, (although for the private flyers it's still faster.) but cheeper to fly pretty much across the board (except for those fees im still not on the same page about but thats no big deal)
But it being more comfortable, maybe that's a good argument to stop the subsidies from governments for airlines, Idk what trains get but I know the modern ones are still in the 'trying to sell it to the population that its a good way to travel' phase of their lifespan, vs planes has been through that and then some and another part of the reason it's falling apart, it's just an old industry and so its got a lot of bad habbits.
Ive always thought if airport were turned into malls and the airlines took care of everything then they'd try harder - air travel is awful now and its been that way for a long time, makes me sad because when I was a lot younger it people used to dress up to fly. Now it's just a disaster, and I haven't been to europe since before covid, but the doomer in me is glad to hear it's a total fricken disaster.
