Delta owns 987 aircrafts, of which about 130 are regional jets. So - what if delta expanded its fleet to include trains?

Let’s say you are going from Augusta, GA to Los Angeles. You could leave AGS at 5:35 and take a 1h4m gate to gate flight to Atlanta, have a 2h16m layover in ATL, then continue on your cross country 5h9m flight to LAX. Add in 2 hours to get to the airport and you have a full day of 10h29m of travel. 5h20m of this time was dedicated solely on getting from Augusta to Atlanta. This is a trip that could take less than one hour on High Speed Rail.

Corporate world is obsessed with “core competencies” and not taking risks. I’ve long thought the same thing but it’s incompatible with the modern American corporate mindset.

Essentially because of Antitrust and the fact that HSR needs a govt money injection to get MarALago -> Trump Tower built.

There is a good idea. Team up with Amtrak to offer discount fares on regional jumper jets with the purchase of an Amtrak ticket and vise versa

That's over Mach 3. No.
That's why I love this group so much. Stoners trying to make sense out of life.
