Posted on entry That wonderful Bush plan to "speed up" holiday air travel? ::: November 18, 2007, 06:30 PM:

When I went to college in New England and visited family in D.C., I nearly always took Amtrak. The nearest airport to the town where I lived was almost an hour away by bus, plus check-in and security time (both much shorter then, and even today Bradley Field is not a large airport), and time at the other end...nearly added up to six hours transit time, only two of which were in the air. Six hours was about how long it took to get from rural Massachusetts to Washington via Amtrak, even when they stopped at every single New Jersey station. I only started flying regularly when I moved to the west coast.

My personal record for air travel is 36 hours, but that included a ten-hour layover in Taipei, which ranks as the most boring airport I've ever been in.

I was in New Orleans for ALA, too. Judging by the people I talked to (not to mention the t-shirts I saw), FEMA is a four-letter word down there. Can't blame 'em.
