By far most planes in that screenshot are over land. You’re right, when you have to cross an ocean to get somewhere there isn’t really any alternative, but for all those over land they could’ve constructed and rode high speed railways instead. Countries like China and Japan show they can be proper alternatives, and there is no reason to use anything else for those distances.
Yeah, I know. I was hoping for an actual answer, looks like I got a few. I’d like more efficient travel, but the megacorporations that be have purposefully decided not to build it. Wonder why.
