If it's only a 2-hour flight, there's probably a better way to get there.
It's much cheaper for an average person to fly from Slovakia to London than to go through, like 3 countries by train/car and in the tunnel/on a ferry.
If money is your only consideration when travelling 700miles (about how far 2h flight usually is) then I don't consider you a reasonable and functional member of society, especially if you're travelling with others.
Please consider your effect on the environment when travelling, cars can take a lot more than one person.
London to Marseille is a 2h flight (probably 5-6h if you include door to door airport travel and waiting) but driving takes just under 12h. If you say you can't afford the cost of the ferry, then consider why are you getting a plane in the first place?
Small compromises can be made to make the world a better place, so remember you have options.
Holy shit. Did you think for ever a split second before typing that comment?
Money, for most people who are not well off, IS THE BIGGEST CONSIDERSTION.
I am not a functioning member of society, if I can't afford to spare multiple times amount of money and time to lug myself, in my shitty car for 18+ hours or in public transportation for 22+ hours to see MY FAMILY like once every 2 years.
Because it's individuals who caused global warming, right? Not the corporations, who knew of it for decades and didn't give a shit in pursuit of higher profits.
I seriously hope this is a troll and you are not actually that idiotic and/or smug.
HOLY SHIT, did you even think before replying to my comment?
Why are you flying between cities if you can't afford to eat your breakfast in the morning. You're a fucking comic
If you take all the individuals off this planet there will be no global warming, don't cope yourself behind major corporations. They are run by individuals you moron. Individuals which would lower their plane fleet if the demand reduced.
You're a deluded cop out kid which isn't worth anyone's time
You are fucking pathetic.
If you think I am such a monster for seeing MY FUCKING FAMILY every 2 years thats your problem. Not mine.
Perhaps yours doesn't love you enough for you to want to visit them.
You are a complete fucking moron who has no idea what the fuck you are even talking about. Its morons like you who give climate activists a bad rep.
Go eat a bag of dicks
When I checked just now it's 13 hours.
That's a lot and you shouldn't drive for that long uninterrupted.
The train apparently takes 7 hours which is much more reasonable.
And of course cost matters.
Btw that trip to London from where I live is either a 2 hour flight or 22-23 hours with train/car
"If you can't afford to go to your brother's funeral by car, but can afford a plane ticket, you're a waste to civilization and should be put down!"
Yep exactly what I said, to the letter!
