Why isn’t flying made more expensive or restricted?
Flying is also harmful to the environment.
For domestic German and partly also intra-European routes, the train can also be used.

Cans on the plane?
ByIdkx3
My friend said you're not allowed to take cans on the plane. However, I want to take my shaving gel (with razor) and dry shampoo with me. Is that allowed?
Poland traffic signs?
Hello, I am currently in Poland and my father is wondering what the 40 signs are for Normally we would say it means that you have to drive 40 but nobody drives 40 here and a few meters before the sign there is usually a speed sign like 70. Do you have any idea what…
What are typical Lufthansa routes?
Hello. I was wondering what a Lufthansa route looks like. Between one and three days on a short-haul flight. From country to country? Frankfurt – Amsterdam – London and back? Or a few more airports, flying in a circle (FRA – … – FRA)? Thanks for answers, LG
What exactly does this sign mean?
To be honest, I'm not entirely sure about the sign. Who exactly is allowed to drive through here and who isn't? Does it only apply to trucks?
Check at the airport (snus)?
Byyaaz2237
(16 years old) Hello, I'm flying on vacation the day after tomorrow, but the problem is that I want to take a pack of snus with me because I'm addicted to nicotine, and my problem is that my parents don't know anything, and I want it to stay that way. I wonder if the police…
Would you have liked to fly on the Concorde?
(myself as a passenger, of course)
Flying is harmful to the environment, but the train is not designed to replace flights.
There are not only trains, but also tracks where “Tempo” is possible, direct connections between big cities and national junctions.
The ICE crawls over veiled paths, keeps in every cow village or even on a free track, because freight trains or bumblebees block the tracks.
You have to change constantly, either rush through strange stations or wait for hours.
International tickets are a disaster because the railway companies do not work together.
Sleeping and resting cars, with which you could at least reasonably use longer journey times, are also offered by the Austrian railway only in German – booking via the Internet: misdisplay!
Sure, fly should be more expensive, but there must be real alternatives. If you look at how long the railway is already making at Munich-Berlin, and what a big compromise will come out in the end…
The rich “Jetset” does not interfere with distortions because they pay at least for commercial flights from their postage funds and then, as far as possible, make inferior use of the tax as operating costs.
On the other hand, however, there are also conflicting interest in the tourist industry for the masses in “Normalos” in the tourist industry – priority areas for the continuation of arrival by plane .
The ones then live away, and ecologically a modern and fully occupied aircraft does not necessarily have to cut off “bad” from certain distances towards individual trips.
It is therefore also a construction site with many conflicts of interest to be explained.
But this will not please the airline companies. I also do not believe that shorter flights are necessary. I wouldn’t depend on taxes because it only affects the poorer.
Jo, can. But it is often simply not profitable. As an example, I take the route Hamburg-Salzburg, Oneway at the end of June.
By train:
9 hours for 85€.
By plane:
One hour 20 minutes for 80€.
And as long as this extreme imbalance is not fixed, there will continue to be domestic flights and such flights to near European countries (must be).
I’m right to you, the flight is more pleasant and faster, but you should round the 1:20 more to 4-5 hours. 30 minutes from Hamburg Hbf to Airport, according to Eurowings you should be at least 2h before departure at the airport, so there will be at least 15 € for a baggage item to which you can wait a while at the destination airport, then there again the trip to the city center…
This may be true for travellers, but even 5 hours are not a comparison to the 9 hours of the train, which can easily extend.
There are also some business travellers. They don’t have a baggage and don’t need so long at check-in. You can calculate about 3 hours of travel time.
There are also people who want to take a suitcase and do not want to live in Hamburg or go straight to Salzburg. On the train ticket, departure and destination stations in the vicinity hardly make a difference, but for the “train to/from the flight” there are unfortunately no savings prices, and these short distances can cost time (and money) again…
I agree that flying is much more pleasant (all the difference between airport and train station…), only you shouldn’t always start from the ideal case.
Car driving is also very harmful to the environment. Why don’t all bus and train go?
I would like to invite you to a train trip from Frankfurt/Main to Vienna.
10 hours (!) against not even 2 hours with the plane.
Professional No go.
Car driving should also be made uncomfortable.
Flying but strangely not
But remember all the businessmen I flew 2x every week as manager to Finland, Uk, Ukraine, Slovakia, Poland, Lithuania.
No business without a plane.. Not everything goes online.
In general, the connections to Austria are not optimal, both in terms of time and price. (See also my answer.)
