I don't understand the point, as a school board, of limiting where your organizations can travel to. Parents still have to willingly send their children to these locations, and if they are worried about traveling to NYC or by air, they can choose not to send their children. It should be up to organizations (in our case, FIRST teams) to decide where they want to travel to as a team -- and if enough people on the team do not want to fly, they can choose something else.

Our team was briefly considering the option of traveling by plane to a distant regional, and this was one of the issues we discussed. Ultimately we decided to do two drivable regionals for cost reasons, not for safety reasons... But this is something a team should have the ability to decide on, not a school.
