how long I'll be on the other end, what I'm doing there, and what I'd like to take with me. If I'm going to be someplace all summer, living a normal life, I probably want my own car and a bunch of my own stuff. If I'm going to be there for a short event and don't even need to take a bag, getting a ride from a friend (or a cab) might be adequate. If I'm taking my infant, I'll want his car seat and stroller. And so on.
- cost. There have been times when I've gotten round-trip flights between cities 600 miles apart for a hundred bucks, which is a little less than I'd spend on gas (even in my efficient subcompact.) There are times those same tickets are 500 bucks, which is a total waste.
Some of these factors are weighted very differently depending on family size and age. For a large family, the cost of flying increases significantly, but so do the number of bathroom breaks while driving. With an infant, a lot more stuff has to be taken along, which can be aggravating in the airport, but saving a bunch of hours might be worth it.
