From all indications, astral projection is by far the least expensive option which offers the widest range of travel destinations.  There may be penalties for excess baggage however, these aren't monetary.
One can lead a horse to water however, if one holds the horse's head under, that horse will drown.

I would have to say train.  You get the view and can stretch your legs

Planes because you can get there the fastest, and watch movies.  I don't like how airfare is often more expensive than the trip itself, however!

Unfortunately I don't like any of it anymore.  I have family that work for the airlines, but I think they have started to treat people so poorly.  It used to be kind of a treat to fly.  Now it is more like torture.

Between the options suggested I would choose flight/airplane overall. I hate the wait at the airport and layovers, but I can travel farther and faster than the other two. If I wanted to take something of leisure and I was not as pressed with time I wouldn't mind the comfort of a train.

I would like to try traveling in an RV. If time is not a great issue. But, with gas prices so high it seems like an impossiblity. I would love to do some traveling. I think with an RV, it would be like having a home on the road.

I do not like traveling very much, but of those choices I'd pick plane. My first choice, however, would be a normal road trip in a car. I like riding with my husband, listening to all of our favorite sings.

I don't mind air travel. I've never taken a train although I have heard it is a good way to travel with a bit more comfort. I need to try it out sometime. I really don't like taking a bus as it is crowded and a long travel time.

I love a good roadtrip, but these days I opt for flying over anything else. It can be a pain, but it gets me there faster.

I'd prefer plane or to just drive myself

Get great rates on rental cars and hotels so if I can calculate the gas to be cheaper than buying an airline ticket, I'm all for it.
That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.

You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into in the first place.

I have taken a few cruises and that was kind of fun, but there have been lots of horror stories about that lately also.  I will be optin for my normal "stacation" again this year.  It isn't the cost of the vacation that stops me from going, it is the charge for boarding 3 dogs.
