That's true.
But at least with a train you can get up, walk around and change seats whenever you want.
And you don't have to arrive at the station two hours before departure. Or queue up to be searched. Or show your passport to get on the train even when travelling within the country. Or pay extra for each bag you carry. Or pay an extra fee for buying your ticket by credit card.
Or arrive at your destination on time, only to have to wait 20 minutes while the train taxis to the platform. And still have to queue up to get off. And then, even when you're off the train, have to get on a bus to take you right into the station. And then another train or bus to take you to the city centre.
Or .... (I better stop here to give people a chance to disagree with me).
