I think the main advantage of travelling with an airplane is that you come very fast from A to B. It is very expensive to fly, the most of the people can't pay it, but it's a very good alternative for ferries, trains, buses and cars. You can travel many miles for example from Germany to the USA without much stress, of course it's a long way and you have to stay a long time at the airport but you normaly don't have to look after your baggage. You get drinks and meals in the plane and can watch TV or listen to music. A disadvantage is that the airplane can fall and the chance to survive is very remote. Futher disadvantages are that you can come in a control of the customs officers and it can lasts more than an hour and you are very tired from the long flight. And often the customers officials are from other countries, so they can't speak your tongue and they have a special idiom in their english language so you frequently have to ask if they can talk a little bit slower and clearer because you can't understand them. And if you don't want to spend your whole holiday in your hotel or on your campground, you should rent a car, it's another cost factor.
All in all I think it's a great experience to travel via airplane and if someone says it's not because he becomes travel-sick during the flight, it shouldn't prevent you from trying it because there are pills you can take before the departure so that you don't become sick.
