Yeah it can be, Tina, but not business travel when you have to get there and get home. Try Amtrak's California Zephyr, Chicago to San Francisco, timed to leave chicago mid-afternoon, overnight across the Iowa-Nebraska-Colorado plains, Denver for breakfast, climbing through and across the Colorado Rockies the first full day, Salt Lake City at dinner time, Utah-Nevada desert the second night and the Donner Pass and the Sierra Nevada Mountains the second full day. Movies in the club car and a decent dining car with fresh-cooked meals. Or VIA from Vancouver to Calgary or Edmonton. Gorgeous. Or transatlantic on whatever ship is available (I think only QE2 is regularly scheduled now). But it ain't easy and it ain't inexpensive.
