Is there any discussion about personal airships? I wouldn’t mind the slow speed if it meant I could go to sleep in a quiet, bump free, spacious craft and wake up a couple hundreds miles away at my destination (weather permitting, of course).
- WorldMaker 4y agoThis article glosses over it a bit, but yeah, almost everyone discounts passenger airships as a viable option, but as someone who enjoys a good cruise ship every so often, I could absolutely see a lovely market for airships in recreational passenger travel. Airships may never beat airplanes for speed/cost, but yeah, I think people greatly underestimate the demand for an air travel option where you could walk around, lounge, play board games, comfortably grab some sleep, maybe even shower if you had lift budget for enough water.
