    It takes so much longer though. I don’t think I’d prefer the travel time of a ship over the sea over the temporary discomfort of a flight.

      i mean we can make pretty fast boats at this point, and sleeper trains are plenty popular.

      I think a 3-day transatlantic cruise from Calais to NYC would attract quite a lot of people, it wouldn’t be the main way to go from europe to america but for anyone on a leisure trip, why not? Or if you’re moving between the continents, that’s a pretty stellar way to mark the change in your life.
