I will say my own view.
Initially
,
people
do not travel by
air
but rather by land and water with the use of a canoe. But now companies see
this
means as the easiest and safest route. the few reasons behind
this
could be pointed to insecurity, road traffic jam and
also
people
travel through aircraft means just to show off how wealthy they are. The rate of insecurity in some parts of our country is alarming , folks get scared travelling by road because of the arm robbery attacks and kidnappings. For ,example, a business person who wishes to route by road to purchase goods and gets attacked by these arm robberies extorting all funds in possession, will make one feel devastating

is the most alarming and because of
this
, some groups prefer travelling by
air
over any other means. For ,example, it only takes a
flight
from Owerri to Lagos or Abuja for 30 minutes and one-hour intervals respectively to get to their destinations.
Furthermore
,there are places where commuting by
flight
is a necessity
for example
flying to distant areas
such
as London, the USA and other far countries ,especially for tourism and business. Despite the advantageous side of it ,

flight
could be the fastest but could become disastrous, facing some

such
as turbulence
this

Nevertheless
,
this
tragedy could be avoided if government and companies provide adequate services for these technologies. Moreso monitors their

air
is convenient, accessible and faster. Most tragedies could be avoided by the use of proper service and
weather
forecasts. Unlike travelling by other means without having a clue of what could happen at any point.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
