I would consider moving to Sweden or another country that caters for people who, out of choice, prefer quality public transport with things like overnight sleeper trains. I don't fly or drive. Haven't done so this millennia. Therefore I only think in terms of trains, bicycles, the bus and walking. In my made up mind cars and planes are dangerous and cramped. Plus you have delays at airports so it is actually better to just get the train, avoiding a taxi ride the the airport and a huge delay just to sit in a cramped seat. In a culture where everyone flies or drives it is hard to do trains and bicycles. I think that if the decent trains are provided and the service is better then there will be more people who just prefer the train. Same with cycling infrastructure. Inherently trains and bicycles as well as the bus can be a much more pleasant option. But when you have a ruling class shuttered away in tin boxes for their transport needs with them being at the beck and call of aviation/auto lobby people then things get skewed at the planning level.
