I just don't get why people who are only concerned with completing tasks as fast as possible like little robots even play MMOPRGs to begin with. Why do you assume I'm not a hardcore MMO player? I actually can't stand FPS games. I enjoy levelling a character and being part of a community. I wouldn't even mind going from the planet directly to my ship, then going from my ship to the planet... the airlock/hangar/orbital station stuff is just so incredibly pointless and time-comsuming. It's not that I'm overly busy doing anything else. It's probably the same reason I don't re-buff myself with the 60 minute buff before every single fight, I don't see the point...

While I wish that the orbital stations had more in them but a vendor, I don't have a problem with the travel system.

Don't like it? Try some more traditional MMO's where travel is even more challenging, and then come back here. Still don't like it? Then quit and go back to insta-gratification land.

I never said i didn't like the game, I'm picking something about the game I don't find particularly appealing and wishing for it to be improved upon. I guess some people will defend anything... I acknowledge everyone has different tastes, I just can't find anything about this travel system that anyone could possibly like.

No one hates Star Wars as much as "Star Wars fans"

Since some people seem to enjoy and like the current travel system but others do not, why not just make the stations optional? That way the players that enjoy the rp elements can choose to play the game with stations turned on and experience the more realistic travel times; whereas the playets that do not enjoy the travel system can turn stations off and instead go directly from planet to ship to planet.

You have fast travel, which you can pop every 30 minutes, almost every planet has a place you can port which is very close, if not inside, your spaceport. How much easier can you make it? Be honest, what you want is a pocket Mage to port you wherever you want to go. Or a Warlock to summon you there. The system in-place is fine as it is, being lazy, however, isn't.
