Apologies?
Apologies for what!
The crowd didn't feel there was anything to apologize for, instead, a myriad of thoughts flooded their minds, but in the end, they all boiled down to two words—

The plane took off from Nanbi Airport?
Then logically speaking, the car must be taking them to Nanbi Airport.
Anyone with common sense understands that planes consume the most fuel during takeoff and landing, and the distance from Nanbi Airport to the seaside is only about seventy or eighty kilometres. It might take an hour to drive around the city via the expressway.
But for planes, it's almost immediate after takeoff, and flying also involves altitude limits and the need to deviate from flight paths.
In short.
