Depends on what do you mean by "Europe". The continent is slightly larger than the US.

  Copenhagen is closer to Zurich than Chicago is to NYC. Even Paris/Berlin is closer than Chicago/NYC. The US's major cities are not close to each other, with the exception of the North-East Corridor, and the distances involved are far larger than most corresponding distances in Europe--you have to be talking about trips between Spain and very deep into Russia to start to compare against the NYC/LA pairing.

    The East Coast and the West Coast are far away. Because the US are almost as huge as Europe :-)
