You could make gasoline from the air. A bit inefficient, but if we somehow get to the fabled "free fusion" power plants, it could be a neat trick to have synthetic gas in pipelines flowing from fusion CO2 atmospheric scrubbers.

You don't need fusion. PV works too; you just need a lot of it. Making liquid fuel from air is currently the only viable solution for carbon-neutral aircraft, which is why the military likes the idea.
