Then, even on a short flight you typically have to connect somewhere. Combine that with the all the hassle you have to deal with, the increased prices, the decreased service and it's just not worth it to fly anywhere on a short flight.
Yep. I fly into and out of the country. Otherwise, I'd rather drive pretty much everywhere.

Especially with this new pat-down BS, I'll only fly when absolutely necessary.
