It depends on the product and company footprint.

Not necessarily. Depends on the nature of the job and the company he's working for. You don't like travelling? But for sure you will be doing some travel every once in a while. It's nice though. I enjoyed travelling for work.

Some do. Personally, I rarely do. Everyone is happy to Zoom these days.

I think it's extremely dependent on the company. I have never seen the PMs at my place travel a lot.
