I get that, that’s one way of looking at it. But other folks look at train vs plane for more utilitarian “getting there”. Depending on your situation and what you consider the train ride to be, the value offered by the train can be considered a reasonable deal or outlandishly expensive.
- rbanffy 2y agoEconomy class airplanes are all utility and zero experience. The business is viable because utility and torment can cancel out because the trip itself has need to have a perceived value - all the value is in moving from A to B. A drive, a cruise, or a train trip have intrinsic value beyond moving from A to B. You experience the movement in a different way. We need to start thinking a bit differently about the economics of transportation when travelling for leisure.
