I’m probably in the top 2%, averaging 2 US-EU flights and 6 domestic US flights per year. I hated every minute of it, and in some ways I feel like the pandemic saved me from the gluttony of in person meetings. The pandemic offered many of us an opportunity to use the technology we have and avoid unnecessary travel. Is zoom/g-meet a replacement for in person meetings? No. But is it good enough and worth the savings on time and damage to the environment? Hell yes.

I'm sorry, but I think you are in the 1% of world population. From the article, 11% of world population took at least 1 flight, so when it talks about 1% of the population, they are talking about the 10% most frequent flyers. With 6 continental and 2 inter-continental flights a year, I think you're probably in that top 10% most frequent flyers.
