That wasn't really the point. He was surprised that this tax-free situation is not addressed and I just gave a (of many) reason why they might not want to change that.

I think your new point is optimistic at best. You would have to switch trains quite often and the time it takes would probably weigh heavier than the price. Especially between EU countries, within country flying is not really that big in EU.

I meant this

> I love trains and take them over airplane when it's an option. However, trains are often around twice as expensive as flying for may routes.

But I agree that switching trains is also an issue.
