Makers/marketers, would you rather travel in cars, trains or planes ?

Even if i like driving cars so much, i think that trains are still the best option, here is why: 💚 eco-friendly 🌐 wifi, useful if you want to spend some time working 🫂 meeting new people 🏞️ sightseeing, from the windows you can enjoy mother nature 🫰less expensive, not all the time but most of time

by trains, it is cost-effective and I can work when traveling

Trains! I love trains so much; I can't think of a con with them. My worst is probably cars but I hate planes almost equally.

Planes, time is saved like a magic.

@dhanraj depends! if you are doing a short trip, trains are probably faster as you do not have to go through all the aiport security procedures

I guess it depends on how far you go. What distance were you thinking of?
Mohcine Heddi
@elly_cho short trips like 2/3/4 hours. Otherwise, for sure planes are much more efficient

@make_mhe Unless you're particularly fond of driving, you're right, trains and airplanes are better. 🚞 ✈️

Trains are not a huge thing in my country like they are in Europe. I've never even been on one and don't think the vast majority of my friends/acquaintances have in Canada either. But, if they were popular like they are elsewhere, it would be a great option I would definitely use. Right now though, planes are cheaper than road trips if you're doing it solo. So have to go on planes (I am also rather impatient with driving).

@carter_barnett it is true that in north america people usually take planes or cars to travel, trains are not that common 🚂
Maxime Dolores
There is nothing as satisfying and confortable as building your product in the train 😎

No, hard and fast choice. It depends on the distance I have to travel.

Trains definitely, because you: - can enjoy the trip outdoor - work for real (with headphones and noise reduction, better) - walk when needed - go to the restaurant wagon - are less stressed vs plane

Trains, I love creating memories and aesthetics of trains.

I think it’s an interesting question, because each mode of transportation has its advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I prefer to travel by train when possible, because I find it more comfortable, affordable and reliable than cars or planes. Also, I like to enjoy the scenery and relax or work during the journey. However, I understand that sometimes the train is not an option, either because of the distance, availability or time. In those cases, I choose the plane for its speed, safety and variety of destinations. I only use cars when I want to have more flexibility or travel with more people. What about you? What do you prefer and why?
Mohcine Heddi
@pedro_de_la_nube i agreed with your usage pattern a lot! cars and very good gor flexibility otherwise trains are just the best for me 🔥
Thomas Boulesteix
Trains are great when there are no strikes 🙃

For distances of a few hours definitely trains. They are a great way to commit time and not waste precious hours. The car is convenient because it allows you more autonomy, but the train is definitely better for everything else!
Chad Lynch
Making progress on your product while relaxing in a train car is the best of both worlds.
Vlad Zivkovic
Definitely planes, it saves ton of time and time is money :)
Mohcine Heddi
@vladimir_zivkovic the airport procedures takes a lot of time though. For short trips (2/3 hours) travelling with trains is much faster i think
Vlad Zivkovic
@make_mhe yeah I agree, depends if you travel international or domestic, I live in India and domestic flights don't really take so much as international flights so for 4-5 hours trips I would fly, for short trips train is much more comfortable than a car or bus.
Burak SERPEN
Planes or cars 4 sure!
Mehdi Rifai
Trains make a trip so enjoyable :)
George Novik
I completely agree! Trains are my go-to for all the reasons you mentioned. Plus, I find them more comfortable and less stressful than planes.
