I thought being in a plane in the air counted as air travel and being in a spacecraft in space counted as a space travel?

While we are capable of (human) space travel, it's currently only really for science. On the other hand, people travel by air all the time for practical reasons.

It's been a long time since humans were far enough from Earth that their spacecraft didn't experience significant atmospheric drag.
