Flooing and Brooming Around / Apparating

Someone brought up the toping on flooing around
Hogwarts and it made me think.

Floo powder wouldn't make visiting dear Bill in Egypt
(or Charlie) for vacation much of a trouble, then. How
do they travel internationally, anyway?

And with Apparating, working in Egypt or Romania isn't
a big deal. Bill and Charlie can go home whenever they
want to, and go back to work presumably as quick as a
flash. It's a bit like working next door. (Unless they
really have to stay there in their jobs, like the
Hogwarts boarding school concept. Then again if home
is virtually 'next door' they don't need to.)

Why don't they use brooms to navigate the school? The
grounds, at least. And if flying in public is in
danger of being seen by Muggles, brooms should now
lose their transportation value (much like flying
cars, for instance). Also, floo is faster and in a
way, safer.

A little off-topic. Do they use brooms to clean
places? Filch has a broom cupboard.
