Give me train travel any day. You can put your feet up across the compartment, walk around, bring (edible) food with you, and it only costs 600Kc to go from Prague to Bratislava, or 780 to go to Dresden and back. It takes awhile, but it's a great way to see the country, and they do run on time, believe it or not.
Security consists of armed conductors and bored border-cops. You walk onto the platform, you get on the train, you shove your luggage into the rack. No muss, no fuss, not so much as a metal-detector. GAWD I love living in a civilized (kinda) country.
Never have done AmTrak, though...too pricey.
