Trains, Planes and Automobiles? Well, Trump "MADE AMERICA WAIT AGAIN" so here are your bus, train and boat options.
Skip the TSA Line: Where to Find Travel by Bus, Train, and Boathttps://www.wired.com/story/skip-the-tsa-line-where-to-find-travel-by-bus-train-and-boat/
The article links to apps which can help. YMMV, of course.
I wasn't paywalled for me. If so, try the archive https://archive.is/BdmdI
Every year, without fail, the US experiences at least one major disruption in air travel due to severe weather, government shutdowns, software outages, or power outages—you name it.
Right now, a partial government shutdown has meant that thousands of Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers have not been paid for several weeks, causing many to call out of work or quit. That has meant long security lines—more than three-hour waits—ensuing chaos at airports around the country. It's unclear how long this mess will last, so it's worth thinking about other options.
Flights are also expensive and hard on the environment. If you can take a bus, train, or ferry to your destination, why shouldn't you? These travel search apps help you find routes and prices so you can compare them and make the best decision.
