While the train ticket may be slightly cheaper and more convenient for Janice, if her goal is to spend as much time as possible with her friend, she should choose the faster option, which in this case is the plane. Additionally, choosing the safest mode of transportation (as suggested in option D) is always a good idea, but it is not the most relevant factor in this scenario.
