And they receive how many subsidies? Would be unviable without massive public infrastructure? Without air traffic control? How many bailouts has the industry received?
It's practically a socialist institution at this point, can we not just pull that bandaid and either nationalize it or cut the subsidies all together? Not to mention the carbon impact of so many flights all the godamn time is having.
I am talking about Europe now:
we need trains. We need to unify the rail systems (rail width and electrical tensions) and the ticket systems. Europe could be easily served using a network of night train routes.
I think there should be way more political discourse about rail in the EU, but, for example in Italy, airports have been used as electoral campaigning devices.
