A flight from Madrid to Uruguay forced to make an emergency landing after encountering turbulence has ‘landed normally,’ according to Spanish airline Air Europa.
I've made a decision to stay firmly on the ground for the rest of my life. If I can't get somewhere by foot or bike or vehicle or train, I'm not going, simple as that. Between the carbon footprint and the personal logistics and the security theatre I am just done with air travel.
I'm looking forward to an overnight train trip to visit family in a few weeks. It wasn't cheap, but it wasn't much more expensive than a flight, and so much more relaxing. I normally book cabins both ways but the return cabins were all booked up this time around, so I got a berth. I'm okay with that though, I still get shower access and provided meals. Should still be a more pleasant experience than dealing with air travel.
