Its all the same to me. An airport is probably the last place i want to be at and driving in a foreign country is something i find more stressfull than utilising the public transport there.
Before the "Special Military Operation", there was a train from Berlin to Moscow.
London to Paris, Paris to Berlin (I think this connection exists), to Moscow, Trans-Siberia to Vladivostok, and you're a ferry ride away from Japan, and there must be a Shinkansen straight to Tokyo...
