Obviously his plane would provide more security, but it likely would have taken as much time. As a Senator, he was a HUGE advocate of high speed rail for decades. He spoke of how because they went from the heart of one city to another (at least in the DC, NYC, Boston route he was speaking of) they could be about as fast.

I bet it was fun for his staffers to have what was likely a more informal discussion than usual.
