If the people on the plane were given a choice earlier between being sent to a remote island or going home, most would have chosen to go home without hesitation.

The first path: press the button, and in a moment, they could fly back home with the plane. No adventure, no danger.
The second path: possibly staying on the remote island for ten days. They had no knowledge of the island's circumstances, nor could they predict the dangers that might follow, but they might win prize money.
Just as Mr. S had mentioned earlier, the maximum prize money each person could receive was eight million.
