The seats are assigned. People have been standing in line for 15 minutes now. Why on earth would anyone want to stand there, when they could just sit and wait until the line clears?
I understand wanting to get off a plane ASAP, but boarding? You just end up sitting on the plane, waiting for everyone else to get on.
We don’t have cool trains like you do in many parts of Asia.
And the Asian countries that don’t have trains are probably small enough that you still don’t really need to fly to get from one side to the other.
Are you under the impression that the US has a bunch of trains that we use constantly? Because we dont.
I wish we did, maybe someday.
