Many people with money travel so much home is a hotel. They 'have a large manson that the staff says is nice' isn't quite the truth but it isn't far off.

though they also don't have time to take a slow train.

    Perhaps more of a European mega-rich habit, not especially applicable to the US, is the practice of just taking the mansion, helicopters, and cars with you on a super yacht.

      I'd forbid those things in territorial waters. They bring no money to local communities and are glad to do things like ignore nature reserves or go with motor boats where people are swimming, which is of course illegal but they don't care.

    Even if you travel a lot and just have one home, spending a lot of time on luxury travel can still get old.

For the people that own these cars, it’s about the journey, not the destination.

FWIW I am away from home ~300 days a year for work and I have the choice of any mode of transport.

I prefer train any time.

And for some, the journey is the destination.
