Airline fleet stocks take a while to churn through (like 30y I think, somewhere between cars at 10y and buildings at 70) so big windup problem before planes can be redesigned around new patterns of travel. We’re gonna see a lot of bankruptcies along the way.

But this is a bridge we have to come to and cross at some point for climate reasons. For personal life aesthetic reasons, I’d really like to see ships and trains make a comeback, as well as longer duration seasonal travel. Reduce speed of travel and increase time at destination

I hope so too but seems like wishful thinking. Business is relationships, and relationships form more strongly with physical presence.

good. Climate Crisis couldn't take much more of the unrestrained cheap mass air travel anyway...? Wouldn't be surprised if it got rationed in the not so distant future, say 2 personal trips/year, with ability to auction off
