Boat Or Plane

Which is more safe to travel? By boat or by plane? I would say neither. At first I liked travelling by boat because I can just sleep the night and when I wake up, I will be home. Then again, these days the boats are very old to the point that they can be easily swayed by the waves.

I normally do not get sea sick but riding in a small boat, and an old one at that makes me sick. I used to like the boat because at least the probability of surviving in case of disasters is better than that with a plane which means instant death. However, if problems arise in the boat, it can lead to a slow and painful death.

Plus, I hate the fact that in tourist sections you get mixed up with people who snore which is very irritating. Kind of like how I want to punch their faces because I could not get a good sleep. My problem with the plane is turbulence and my fear of crashing which as I said earlier means instant death. Probability of surviving is zero.

But the plane does offer some benefits like quick flights.

Compared to before, I would pick travelling by plane nowadays rather than by boat. Now … if only those plane tickets are not that nastily expensive.
