Rating

The train offers a direct city-center connection, avoiding the time spent on airport transfers required for flights. While a flight is faster in the air, the total travel time including security and transit is comparable for those staying in the city centers. Buses are often cheaper but have longer journey times and less space for movement. The rail route provides higher levels of onboard service and the ability to work or rest with more legroom than a bus or low-cost flight.
