	# One may not travel by airplane over [[Shabbat]] whether or not the plane departs before [[Shabbat]].<ref>Tzitz Eliezer 1:21, Igrot Moshe 3:97, Yalkut Yosef (vol 1, pg 52).		# One may not travel by airplane over [[Shabbat]] whether or not the plane departs before [[Shabbat]].<ref>Tzitz Eliezer 1:21, Igrot Moshe 3:97, Yalkut Yosef (vol 1, pg 52).
	* Tzitz Eliezer 1:21 writes that it is absolutely forbidden to travel on an airplane on Shabbat or even go before Shabbat and land on Shabbat for several reasons. 1) The airplane travels more than the techum and even though it is above 10 tefachim from the ground it is still forbidden since it is for more than 12 mil (Rama 404:1). 2) Being on an airplane on Shabbat is forbidden because he can't enjoy Shabbat normally and is a violation of Shabbaton, resting. His precedent is the Chatom Sofer 6:97 regarding trains (see Ramban Vayikra 23:24). 3) Since he rented a seat and the non-Jew is flying the plane it appears as though he asked the non-Jew to do melacha with his property (see Rama 246:1). </ref> However, if the plane departs before Shabbat and arrives after [[Shabbat]] is over there is an opinion which allows it, but in any case one should consult one's Orthodox Rabbi.<ref>Yalkut Yosef (vol 1, pg 52).

Sh"t Rivevot Ephraim 3:161:2 writes that one shouldn't board an airplane if one knows that it will continue to fly on [[Shabbat]].

	* Chatom Sofer writes that going on a train beyond the techum is forbidden since the bottom of the train is within 10 tefachim of the ground, so it isn't considered above 10 tefachim. That is based on Raavan, Ritva, Bet Yosef, and Magen Avraham who hold that going in a wagon beyond techum is forbidden even if he's sitting above 10 tefachim. However, even according to Yereyim that since he's moving and he's above 10 tefachim he isn't violating techum, he cannot rely on that to go beyond 12 mil which according to many poskim is deoritta. Also, this is only for getting on before Shabbat and going beyond the techum on Shabbat. But getting on Shabbat is forbidden because Rashba holds that there's techum above 10 tefachim since he already has a techum when Shabbat started.		* Chatom Sofer writes that going on a train beyond the techum is forbidden since the bottom of the train is within 10 tefachim of the ground, so it isn't considered above 10 tefachim.

But getting on Shabbat is forbidden because Rashba holds that there's techum above 10 tefachim since he already has a techum when Shabbat started.
			*Chazon Ovadia v. 1 pp. 127-130 argues that going on a train is a violation of techum since it is like a wagon and Ritva and Bet Yosef hold that it is considered within 10 tefachim. In Yachava Daat 3:36 makes this point tersely.
	* Besides techum, Chatom Sofer writes that going on a train on Shabbat is a biblical violation of Shabbaton, and if it for business it is also a rabbinic prohibition of mimso chefsacha.		* Besides techum, Chatom Sofer writes that going on a train on Shabbat is a biblical violation of Shabbaton, and if it for business it is also a rabbinic prohibition of mimso chefsacha.
	Tzitz Eliezer 1:21 forbids riding on a train or even intracity subways which do not go beyond the techum. His reasons are: 1) It is forbidden to go beyond the techum. 2) There is a concern that he won't realize and go beyond the techum. 3) Since he's moving he can't rest properly and this violates Shabbaton. 4) Since he is renting his seat and a non-Jew is driving it appears as though he asked the non-Jew to drive the train (see Rama 246:1). 5) Going on an intracity train is an issue of public display of melacha (avsha milta). 6) Going on a train is an activity that is designated for the weekday (uvda d'chol). </ref>		*Tzitz Eliezer 1:21 forbids riding on a train or even intracity subways which do not go beyond the techum.

	~~# The Minhag is not to ride a bike~~ on [[Shabbat]].<ref>Or Letzion (vol 2, chap 42, note 1), Sh"t Yabia Omer 10:54(12), Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]], vol 5, pg 56). The Ben Ish Chai in Rav Pealim 1:25 permits it but some say that later on he retracted from that ruling. (Sh"t Yechave Daat 2:48). [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/displayRead.asp?readID=2337 Rabbi Mansour on dailyhalacha.com] discusses and clarifies that Rav Ovadyah Yosef's opinion on this topic is that it is not proper to ride bikes on [[Shabbat]].		{{Bike on Shabbat}}
	* '''Ashkenazi Poskim:''' [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14506&st=&pgnum=154 Tzitz Eliezer (7:30:1)] holds that riding a bike on [[Shabbat]] is an issue of [[Uvda DeChol]].
	* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=22674&st=&pgnum=90&hilite= Rav Azriel Hildesheimer (siman 49)] holds riding a bike on [[Shabbat]] is an issue of [[Choresh]].
	* Rav Yitzchak Schmelkish (Tshuvos Beis Yitzchak) explains that the gezerah against riding an animal was a broad gezerah against all transportation on [[shabbos]]. [https://www.yutorah.org/sidebar/lecture.cfm/857702/rabbi-hershel-schachter/highlights-of-melachos-shabbos-ii/ Rav Schachter (Highlights of Melachos Shabbat Part 2, min 70-2)] quoted this from the Shoel Umeishiv and agreed.
	* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14667&st=&pgnum=65 Chasam Sofer (6:97)] thinks that riding a train is a violation of “shabbason.”
	* '''Sephardi Poskim:''' The [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=1401&st=&pgnum=56 Ben Ish Chai (Rav Poalim 1:25)] permits biking on Shabbat.
	* [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=9085&st=&pgnum=310&hilite= Kaf HaChaim (5:404:8)] quotes the Ben Ish Chai, but then he says the minhag is not to ride bikes and he brings many reasons why (it might break and he’ll come to fix it, he might ride outside the [[techum]], he might get to a hill where he’ll need to get off and carry the bike.)
	* The [http://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=961&st=&pgnum=51 Yaskil Avdi (OC 3:12:5:4)] says it's forbidden because it might break and you might come to fix it like musical instruments. And he claims the Ben ish chai was chozer. There is a big discussion as to what the Ben ish chai actually held.
	* Rav Ovadiah Yosef (Yabia Omer 10 OC 54:12, and 55:2) doesn't think Ben Ish Chai changed his mind and he argues with yaskil avdi because we can't invent gzeiros nowadays. But he concludes that it’s proper to be stringent not to ride a bike on [[shabbos]]. Rav Matzliach Mazuz (Sh"t Ish Matzliach OC 1:35) agrees that it should not be permitted to ride a bike on Shabbat or Yom Tov, even in a place with an eruv.</ref>
