Pros & Cons of Flight Travel

Pros of Flight Travel

Flying is always the fastest way to get to your destination but remember to calculate the time you will need to get to the airport and go through customs and/or security checking formalities
Air travel saves you the precious time of your vacation. Even if you are an ardent adherent of bus or train travel, give air journeys a chance. It especially concerns domestic destinations.
There is usually a convenient schedule with enough options to choose from not only in terms of the departure and arriving times but also in terms of price.

Cons of Flight Travel

Airports are often located way out of the city centre. And not all of them have straightforward, easy and budget-friendly solutions to get to and from the city centre. It means that you may end up paying the double price to get to and out of the airport than for the ticket itself
You are required to arrive at the airport well in advance, which can result in spending approximately the same time on your trip as if taking a train or bus on some short-haul routes.
