Disclaimer

The short version: these are estimates from a fan project, not quotes, and not advice.

Estimates, not quotes

Every dollar figure on this site is a calculation from editable assumptions. Fares, charging prices, rideshare fares and bag fees change constantly and vary by date, route and provider. Nothing here is a price you can book, and no result is a guarantee that you will save money.

Not advice

This is not financial, tax, insurance, legal, medical or professional travel advice. Decide for yourself, and check real prices and schedules before you commit to a trip.

The stress score is subjective

It's a consistent, transparent scoring model, not a clinical measure of anything. It is not a health assessment. If travel affects your health, talk to a doctor rather than a calculator.

Safety is not compared here

This site compares cost, time and hassle. It does not compare safety. Per passenger mile, commercial aviation has an excellent record. Treat safety as a separate question.

Driving is your responsibility

Driver assistance features, including anything marketed as self-driving or autopilot, require an attentive driver who is ready to take over at any moment. Obey the law and the manufacturer's instructions. Nothing on this site suggests otherwise.

No affiliation

Fly or Tesla? is an independent fan project built by Keith Brown. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or connected to Tesla, Inc., any airline, any airport, or any charging or rideshare provider.

Trademarks

"Tesla", "Model S", "Model 3", "Model X", "Model Y", "Cybertruck", "Supercharger" and "Full Self-Driving" are trademarks of Tesla, Inc. Airline and airport names are trademarks of their respective owners. They are used here only to refer to the vehicles and services being compared, under nominative fair use.

Data and third parties

Routes, distances and place lookups come from third-party mapping services. Trips compared on this site are stored anonymously to power the public route library, the map and the leaderboards. No account or personal detail is required to use it.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is", without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no liability is accepted for any loss arising from use of it or reliance on its figures.
