    Bingo. Especially if you have a group of 3-4 that help split fuel, it’s immensely cheaper and arguably more fun. Plus, you’re not restricted what you can bring with you, you can stop to eat wherever you like, and you already have personal transport when you arrive. But, like you said, it’s really only worth it if you’re staying a few days. If you’re just going somewhere for a night and need to get back the next day, flight all the way.
