Although aviation was not part of More's Utopia, he does devote many words to descriptions of travel, which was a big part of his imagined island society.
In this Forbes article, the issue is the future of aviation. Remember those early 20th century promises of easy air-commutes via jet pack or personal air transport? Why do you think people believed that would be convenient or good (and what could go wrong if it all actually came true)? Have you flown anywhere lately? What was the experience like? Do you think that air travel would be part of a better future? How would it change? Consider extreme possibilities along with those that might be considered reasonable.
Read the Forbes articles on "The Future of Aviation", including "11 Ways To Fix Air Travel."
