A few people who would rather take a bus is not going to affect anything.
If you want to take a bus maintained by who knows who or drive in a car where over 30k a year die on the roads. Knock your self out.

I used to fly 36 weeks a year, now maybe twice a year.
Always on Air France or Lufthansa to Europe. The seats cost about $12 more but they are wider than the US seats you pay 35 extra for, when traveling overseas.
To me, the biggest headache is the airport. I'm thinking about shipping my clothes in advance so I need nothing when I got, then shipping them back via FedEx the day before I leave. It costs about 50 bucks each way, but definitely no hassle! I just carry a briefcase with phones, laptop and extra camera.
