But the same is true of flying. Once you get wherever you wanted via a plane, you are pretty much stuck at an airport.

The difference, of course, is that airports tend to have sufficient passenger numbers to justify car hire agencies locating there (or at least providing a shuttle), but that case is harder to make as long as there are comparably few trains per day.

Adding insult to injury, that airport generally isn't feasibly reachable by public transportation.

I've never once been to an airport that didn't have either a bus or a train link to the nearest city.
