Looking for Survey Feedback on Private Air Travel

Done.

Perception

Took the survey. Main factors for me are cost and availability.

I hate (but understand) the pricing games they play with ticket prices, and I hate when flights are changed or rescheduled. I understand that things happen, but I picked the flight I picked because it fit into the rest of my schedule. We recently had to cancel a vacation flight because they kept rescheduling the flight after we bought tickets. The flight changed times a few times which was inconvenient but would have been ok. Then they moved the flight down to a different day entirely. I wouldn't have minded an extra day on the beach, but we already had time off work and the condo reservation nailed down. We ended up driving instead.

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but it would seem to me that a survey broken down to preCOVID, COVID and anticipated postCOVID would be much more clarifying.

Presently "0" travel, when that wasn't how it was, nor how it's projected to be doesn't seem that helpful as data.
