edit: misread your question

I will go out of my way to not fly, since I've found flying (more specifically, the logistics _around_ flying) to be a displeasurable experience, and driving is much easier and affordable.

I can drive, spending 20 hours on the road, and 2 nights in a hotel - each way. Hard to say if that is better or worse than flying. The above trip is taken with my family so flying is more expensive than gas+hotels. However last time I took the trip we missed our connection (weather) had to take grey hound there as they couldn't get everyone there. Driving is not fun, but at least we can be sure to arrive on time.
