I've been lucky enough to avoid traveling by US domestic flights, because similarly to what you say, they sound like a major shit show. So I don't have personal experience in that area, although my girlfriend was in SF for a conference earlier this year, and she said it was reasonably pleasant (on United, even).
I was referring to European and international flights, which I do have experience with.
Charging for carry-on is real shitty. At some point it will be cheaper and easier to simply have your luggage shipped to your destination instead of carrying it with you.
- murph-almighty 9y agoI work remotely in NY for a team in Virginia near DC. I make it a point to take Amtrak because of the carryon limits. Of course there's other perks, e.g. no TSA, less people, more seat room. At the end of the day I'm technically not paying for it (thanks corporate card), so it's a little easier for me to exercise my preferences, but if you book at the right time and trains are a possibility you can get reasonable prices.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoUnfortunately, if I were to choose the train, it would be a 12-hour trip to Stuttgart, at the very minimum. By plane it's 1 hour 30 minutes (figure 2 hours 30 minutes including check-in and luggage). I'm not really the type of person to enjoy that long of a train ride.
