Ans) A day would be significantly different without the avability of personal vechile like bike or car. Having a personal vechile will lower the travelling time as compared to public transpoart. Without the air mode of transporation, the goods and services that a individual purchase, take high amount of time to reach him However, the airplane lower the transit time for shipping goods.. For example, if someone purchase a mobile phone, the typical transit time for mobile phone to reach hime will be 3 days. But, using other mode of transportation like trucks, trains etc, the same order may take more than 7 days to reach him.

Apart from goods and services, the personal travelling time will also increase significantly. For example, if somwone want to travel from United states to Europe, then with airplane he can reach Europe in less than 10 hours but if he travel via cruise ship instead of airplane, it will take more than 7 days to travel the same distance.  

The ability to transport people and goods quickly also allows international trade market to grow due to which services can be provided in timely and efficient manner
