Why do planes feel like they move so slowly?

Asked by troubleinharlem (7991points) December 7th, 2010

I came back from Jamaica today, and as we were crossing the ocean and the highway I felt like we were hardly moving at all. I know that we’re going a few hundred miles per hour, but then why does it feel like we’re going at the same speed as a car?
