It's not that air travel will just disappear or anything. Some areas are simply too remote to depend on anything else.
However, up until about 8 months ago, there were lots of 15-30 minute flights that could be replaced with videoconferencing and (post-pandemic) train travel. Sure, you still might need to catch a plane if you're going on vacation on the other side of the globe, but you can usuall have that client meeting over Zoom, and if you're going on a trip from one European city to another then train travel is often not a bad option.

- fogihujy 6y agoI interpreted it as getting rid off unneccesary air travel. There are multiple ways of achieving such a reduction, but not all would require a ban. A total ban of air travel is, of course, not possible.
