Planes, trains, buses, opinions

Thank you for your article on Europe by plane and train [“Planes, Trains & Buses,†Sept. 23].

My husband and I are planning a London-Zurich-Paris trip, and although I consider myself travel savvy, I have been having plane-versus-train dilemma.

I will use your article as a great reference.

Great articles about budget travel in Europe.

I live in Britain and have used EasyJet and Ryanair and agree with what you said.

Just a couple of points: First, when traveling from Luton, England, to central London, take the train (First Capital Connect). It’s a bit quicker. Second: travelers’ rights. European Union-based airlines have to offer a comprehensive rights package, including overselling, excessive delay caused by the carrier and cancellation.

I thoroughly enjoyed your story about the San Francisco bus trip [Sept. 23].

I love the San Francisco area but get to visit only every few years. And it is expensive. I am delighted to hear about this new mode of transport.
