Yes. But it has to be convenient. I personally don't care for the price as much as I do for convenience. I fly all the time, but there's a balance between distance and going to the airport.
If I have to rent a car at my destination, it negates the reason for taking the train. I may as well drive.
For me it's about convenience. With high speed rail, I can get from Dallas to Houston in under 90 minutes. It would be 3.5 hours to drive. At my destination, I could have car service waiting.
I prefer high speed to flying... waste so much time getting to the airport 2 hours early, followed by another 1 hour to get out of the plane and airport... that's in addition to the actual flying time. I love my car, but when it's too far too drive or too much of a hassle to park, high speed rail is great.
No. I own my own plane and go where I please on my schedule.
