Commercial aviation and rail travel are generally among the safest ways to travel over long distances.

Better vehicle technology, stricter safety regulations and stronger accident-prevention systems reduce many risks.

What are the pros and cons of low-cost air travel?

[EXAMPLE]Example

A ticket may look very cheap at first but become more expensive after hidden charges are added.

[EXTEND]Extend

The model is excellent for price-sensitive travellers, although people should compare total cost and convenience rather than the advertised fare alone.
