I can see regular trips to at least Earth orbit being possible in my lifetime but it'll mostly just be a thing for richfags to show off on social media, not for us peasants

I think our children might not get to experience transportation whatsoever at this rate. Moving people around is expensive, and letting them move around is perilous. Why would the government keep running trains and maintaining roads if most things, productive and not, humans do are online? Keep the trunk lines to transport goods, add drone delivery for those living off the mainline, give everyone personal humanoid maids that can be controlled remotely so you can hire a plumber or a roofer if need arises (and also so that [they] can stab you for wrongthink or redundancy), forbid people from leaving their immediate area lest they riot, highly efficient society. Within this century, we will live to see skies clean of contrails, forever. Airports and stations will be rebuilt into housing or abandoned. Mega City Heathrow and Shinjuku Outlaw Underground.

Most of the world still lives in third world mudhuts and favelas and commieblock apartment buildings. Most of the world doesn't have a comfy home life like us first worlders do, if anything they fucking hate where they live, so your scenario isn't happening anytime soon buddy.

And these never had transportation in the first place lmao

It would kind of be boring just like planes are after the first time

You need variety in scenery, that's why driving around is always fun (unless you're exclusively using the highway)

you are being transported in space RIGHT FUCKING NOW
