Message: [QUOTE="Townie72, post: 192176, member: 780"] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]It's refreshing to see someone cut through the cloud of BS surrounding the supposed horror of travel. [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]As someone who has spent a lot of time in airports and on airliners, another hour in the air on a trip is almost meaningless. And it doesn't seem to make all that much difference in the cost of a trip. [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]Besides, if you really want to measure, you have to include all the surface travel before and after the flight and get to "total time". Land in Columbia, SC and you can almost see the USC campus. Land in Houston and you are at the beginning of a rather long bus ride.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][FONT=Calibri]Long direct flights are almost always shorter than indirect flights. How many planes do you have to get on to get to Boise? How many hours of layover?[/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
