in europe, i've done trains, planes, and cars. trains are by far the most fun experience. it feels that it is part of the journey. i have great memories of taking a sleeper train from paris to barcelona. planes are fast, which is nice. driving takes way too long—even on the Autobahn. the attention to do it is not worth it.
in the americas, i've done planes and cars. both are fine i guess, but i don't really think traveling between countries is quite as easy or worth here. i've been to a few countries in Central/south america and they're all just fine.
i haven't traveled in SEAsia, but my understanding is that short plane trips is the norm.

+1 for trains
We are spoiled in Europe, we can travel from the north of Scotland to the South China sea and everywhere in between by rail, 60+ countries. There is no other way to travel distance in my opinion. If you're in a rush then fly I guess, but fuck being in a rush, I want to see the places I'm traveling through, and stop from time to time to experience different places, peoples and cultures.

Flying is for faggots and cultural retards in my opinion.

I guess I have a few.

For my own enjoyment? I like trains because who the fuck doesn't enjoy trains? You get to see the countryside and cities go past you while you hear the clack clack of the railcars on the rails. I even enjoy slower, more chaotic train trips before, such as through rural Ukraine and Russia.

When I want to travel somewhere fast? Well, high speed trains if available. But otherwise, I will take a plane. I like planes but flying in commercial sucks. You can't see anything because you're so high and you are guaranteed to be surrounded by annoying fucks.

If I'm just going to the USA or back to Canada, then I drive...unless I'm going further than anywhere bordering Ontario/Quebec. The trains suck and the planes are worse because you're surrounded by Americans, who are the scum of the earth and need to be exterminated.

Sleeper trains are pretty cool, but long haul flights are by far the best experience and a cosy part of the journey I always look forward too. You get the meals made for you and the hostess waiting on you with drinks, you can watch some movies or look at the plane cameras on your screen, and it tends not too be scum flying like with short hall flights to touristy places in europe. All with the gentle hum of the flying and the air circulation along with the dimmed ligjts as night approaches for a backdrop.

Traveling across Europe for a year:

Cars were the best, Europe has a lot of fun and scenic roads.

Trains were also good and comfy.

Ferry not that great.

Plane is dead last.

If the countries (combined) are smaller than 255,000 sq mi then my favorite is a train. If the countries in combination are larger, then my favorite is a plane.

Preferably I'd like to ride trains as much as possible in Europe. But changing trains regularly on a journey isn't fun either. Going to Barcelona would take about 24 hours with 6 switches, which is way too much time and stress if you ask me.
