Long distance vacations are irresponsible and selfish. We don't have the resources left to be wasting it on frivolous activities.
People need to see more of the world. Many are too isolated in their specific culture.
There are ways to do that that don't mean getting on a passenger jet get and spewing out co2. Most of those people don't leave the tourist areas and only stay long enough to get their Instagram pictures and tiktok videos.
Hell, I can't even convince my own friends to chat on Discord. They want to drive an hour to me to chat.
