What are the things which affect people's decision to travel by plane or
train or car when going on holiday? I love trains, and avoid short-haul
flights in favour of the train. I'm curious why more people don't go by
train for trips around Europe? Is it mainly price or time are there
other reasons too?

I enjoy train travel, I get sick in buses and aircraft so I tend to
travel by rail when I can.

However if you need to go a substantial distance, over 1,000 Km, I'm
afraid that an aircraft is the only reasonable alternative, mainly
because of time, cost and availability.
