But the cost of travel by plane is similar around USD 500 - and
practically - time of travel as well if you take into consideration
time spent to get to airport and time spent in custom, check-in etc.
And believe me - the difference between London and Warsaw is much
higher than between LA and NY in terms of language, habits, level of
personal income etc. We are not going to travel across Europe and US
on horses, so the distance in miles is not so important :-)
