these guys used to be daring adventurers with goggles and swag and now the pilots have to wear a button down and the airlines squeeze every penny out of you and every drop of fun or joy or magic or adventure out of the experience.

in the 20s it was a great adventure! in the 60s people wore suits and got proper meals! now we just get xrayed and told we can’t bring in water! i love starting my vacation being treated as a terrorist!

    For that amount of time yeah I’ll take the plane, but for travelling from Montreal to Toronto (1h plane vs 5 hours train) I’ll take the train as I’ll be able to work in the train, I won’t have to check-in and go past airport security, be there xx hours before departure, etc
