    ^ We did most of our Europe trip with that in mind. Only a couple flights, and no trains over 5 hours or so.

    With the exception of a couple night trains which saved us a night in a hostel/hotel. We took an overnight train from Zurich to Vienna, and from Berlin to Copenhagen and it worked out great.

    The smaller airports aren't always far, but even main airports. Barcelona, its probably going to take you 40 min to an hour to get to the city center. London Gatwick is going to be at least 30-35 minutes. Add to that the cost of the ground transport. Sometimes a train makes more sense because you also don't have to factor in showing up 2 hours ahead of time to deal with that bullshit. We showed up 10 minutes before trains left and maximized our time in each city.
