New York is very far from Los Angeles, the distance is akin to traveling from Northeast China to Hainan, so if you were to drive there, it might take a week.
Hence, Maurice Singleton's proposal was to rent a private jet.
In the United States, air traffic control is completely different from that in China. Although many people in China also own private jets, they essentially become ornaments or are left overseas, due to China's strict airspace management and the overly complicated procedures for flight plans.
However, it's different in the United States, which has the largest number of private jets, and there are also many large companies that specialize in renting out planes for profit.
After hearing Maurice's idea, Yusuf Zuck immediately agreed that it would be better to fly than to drive, and the cost of renting a jet wasn't expensive, with some being just tens of US Dollars per hour, and only the bigger, more luxurious ones costing a few hundred US Dollars per hour.
