I totally agree with your statement: "People can fly less these days because they can pick up the phone and call a person and talk to him." This is very true. However, this does not lead to your next statement: "More people can decide not to fly since they can also see the other person." There is no evidence to suggest that adding video will lead to more or better meetings. Tashi, thanks for commenting.

People can fly less these days because they can pick up the phone and call a person and talk to him. More people can decide not to fly since they can also see the other person. True - a lot of face to face meetings cannot be replaced with video conferencing, but a lot can. Especially if there's no viable alternative I’d say that face-to-face meetings can be replaced depending on the level of engagement you need for it.
