Yes. I can fly to Mallorca for around £30, in two hours. And I have the choice to buy food on board. But with the flight being only two hours, then if I was trying to keep costs doen, then I can manage 2 hours without eating. I can't do that by coach or train. And if I was hitch hiking, then I would still need acommodation and food on a long journey, which could cost a fortune.
So yet another HUGE FAIL Alan!!!!

I can't believe that you could suggest that Alan doesn't think things through

No it isn't Alan. There will be costs on any long journey, even if you are walking.
