Don't wanna be that guy but this article is a tad bit misleading. 13 euros for a plane ticket is an anomaly and probably due to governments funding airlines to encourage tourism to their countries.
That said, a couple hours on a rickety Ryanair for <13 euros beats buying a bunch of train tickets and the stress involved. Downside is missing out on getting to stop in some cool places and see some pretty sights with comfy leg room. (Also trains are more efficient due to the amount of people boarding)
Yeah 13โฌ for a flight is like my current cross Germany train ticket for 15.99โฌ, super rare and not a honest discussion basis.
In my experience price is more between 20-60โฌ for flights in europe if you want to travel on a specific date and less if you're free to choose.
