Just because you work for an airline doesn't mean everyone has to fly everywhere (unless you get us cheap ass tickets
). I would have liked the train more (scenic route) but the delay as I mentioned was insane. We were already 1/3 of the way there when some train ahead had to make an unscheduled stop for repairs. Also, flying that distance would be like 10 minutes flight time, and then we'd have to deal with Heathrow (or that other airport which escapes my mind at the moment).
Riding the train from Norman, Oklahoma to Ft. Worth, Texas = win
