Superconducting maglev trains can currently go about 70% the cruising speed of a 737, and could take you directly into a city center rather than an airport on the outskirts.

Also, price isn't only a function of supply and demand. We also choose to subsidize fossil fuels with public funds, to make them artificially cheaper.
