The olden zeppelins hardly “pootled” though. They were doing 120kmh at cruise speed. Im sure with modern technology you could up those numbers to 200kmh+. Considering how bad flying is for the environment, I would gladly make the trade to arrive a bit later for a more comfortable, environmentally friendly ride.
This coming from someone who flies 20+ times a year.
