We have /c/fuckcars but no /c/fuckplanes. Yet a lot of the same arguments apply. They cause air pollution (roughly double the amount per km traveled), noise pollution and they (airports) take up a lot of space near dense living areas. Sure, some places can practically only be visited by plane, just like some places can practically only be visited by car. But people don’t consider not having your holiday that far away or giving pushback on a busines trip that should have been an online meeting. Besides work-from-home being encouraged, work-from-home-country should be too.
Cars need to be discouraged in favor of busses, trams and trains. Planes nees to be discouraged in favor of high-speed trains, staycations and hopefully new alternatives like modern sailboats or electric planes.
My wife and I were on holiday last year in Europe. We spent a few days in Vienna and then a few more in Paris. To get between the two, we chose a night train (nightjet I think?).
It would have been a little cheaper to fly, but we thought the train would be fun to experience.
Looking back…IDK whether I’d take the night train again. It was more comfortable than a flight…but the flight is only 2 hours. Even with time to check bags, that’s quite the time sink.
