I seriously think airlines are a sham after riding a bunch of trains.
On a train:
Seats are massive. First class wasn't like 5x the ticket price. No charge for luggage. No wack-ass TSA giving you conflicting rules about if you should keep your shoes/belts on or not. You want to rent a room so you can sleep, do it. You wanna jog from one end to another? Sure.
Unfortunately in America, trains don't fully connect to most places. And because of the price, attracts some real skeevos who leave the place a mess. In most other countries, my god. It's beautiful.
yeah i find it very irresponsible from OP to not take the train from the US to UK

Isn't the UK Distopian in other bad ways? Like insane government surveillance and monitoring

Ohh that's a rough ass flight for a teen :) good luck over there!
Unmarried up and learned the same thing about the fancy tickets. Travel less often, and also don't hate it as much.
Ah awesome, I was only thinking about you both the other evening and wondered how you were doing.
I hope everything is going well so far.
I'll tell you when I'm less exhausted myself.
