It depends on who you are and who you ask. Probably, as always, it is headed in the right direction in some ways, and in the wrong direction in other ways.
Since the Earth is a sphere ... shaped like a ball ... you can start out from the Prime Meridian,go either east or west, and arrive on any continent you want.If it's North America or South America you're headed for, your trip is shorter if you go west.If it's Asia or Australia you're headed for, the eastbound trip is the shorter one.For the rest ... Europe, Africa, and Antarctica ... the Prime Meridian crosses them, soyou wouldn't say that either direction is closer.
