> millions of American short hop regional flights that are taken each year. "Millions of Americans" could be less than 1% of Americans. How do the short hop regional flight numbers compare to the number of American driving equivalent distances? Intrastate flights can be better than typical flying if you're using regional airports without the TSA, but these aren't the kind of airports near major population centers. There are a few scenarios where roads aren't an option, particularly Hawaii where short-hop flights are competing with ferries, not roads. Hawaii alone is probably a substantial fraction of that millions.
