The question is price. Air travel 'sucks' but has also become a lot more accessible, even long haul. If an airship takes 4 days and costs the same as business class on a regular plane I think many people will just business class.
- ghaff 4y agoAnd there is a transatlantic ocean liner option--albeit on a fairly limited basis.
- EricE 4y agoYour assuming that for airship travel the journey wouldn't be the point of the trip, not an inconvenience in getting from point A to point B. With that kind of thinking there would be no market for ocean cruise ships - but there is :)
- jccooper 4y agoThere's a market for cruise ships... as a destination. There's basically no market for ocean liners. There's, what, one left? Perhaps people could be convinced to take an "air cruise", though it'll never have the amenities of a ship, but as transportation there's very little room for slower and more expensive.
