Since the tower is a popular destination, how about a simple button combo to leave orbit and go straight to the tower?
For example, holding the left bumper while 'returning to orbit' actually brings you to the tower directly. As it is now, you return to orbit, open the map, select tower, and then launch. Saves a few steps.

You re right Servers are not really efficient and travels take a while.. Should be good to choose a destination frim where u are without orbit
