Sure, if you spend most of your time hauling around 8 other people and a pile of stuff, but most people don't. Extend that logic of fuel economy per passenger mile out a bit, and you find youself taxiing your 747 down to the convenience store - hey, it gets great fuel economy on long trips with a full load, doesn't it?
