Ok, then replace "funeral" with any family function you need to attend. Should your kids miss school on Friday and Monday to drive to and from a weekend wedding?
Yes.
I don't think you'll find many parents willing to make that sacrifice for courtesy.
It'd be fun, though. Road trips were always more enjoyable than sitting on a fucking plane for hours when I was a kid.
Yeah, I don't care either way on this "kids vs no kids" on a plane, but I used to love road trips SO much. It let me see many new cool things that I wouldn't have otherwise.
It's already parents vs childfree in this thread, and I have to admit it's a bit entertaining, but do we really want to bring the fuckcars people into this as well?
