We live in a paradoxical world. People’s perceptions are inaccurate. Emotions bias judgment. Nonetheless, the idea of airline travel being the primary travel option is inefficient and costly beyond cash payment. While people fight regulation as some sort of limit of ‘freedom’, the reality is that a regulated system is required for large scale operations. For example, Amazon. For transportation, however, movement takes priority over profit. The FAA needs more funding and partnering with providers to provide the same level of operation that Amazon provides to users of its system.
