I have two family members who are terrified of flying but also see it as a massive hassle and would rather just drive or take Amtrak/regional commuter rail everywhere in the country. Even if it means taking a couple days to get there vs a few hours or less.

However, most of my family prefer to fly because we just want to get there. So we often meet the other two out at our destination later on when they arrive.

What do you prefer when it comes to domestic travel? Deal with US Interstates/highways or take Amtrak/commuter rail and focus on the journey? Or do you prefer to get to the destination ASAP and just fly?

This is in the context of leisure travel like vacations and such. For business, folks are on schedules so that’s different.
