I think a major factor is the cost to take the band overseas these days..It's just not that profitable for all that preparation and travel..and they are all a tad older and they like the short hauls they do. When needed a private jet gets them where they need to be in short order..
A lucrative gig like 3 nites in Niagara Falls, which is a 60-90 minute drive for them is a lot less stressful too.
