I understand the inferrence but it is a big leap to think they are going to pay probably 10,000x the price to ship them via boat, or even a hundred times more than regular air freight, just so they will be on one cargo plane that can't even land at some airports.

its not like cigarettes are better fresh? or are they? i have never heard that.

You're looking at this the wrong way - rationality for normal people isn't a factor here.

Sure, you could wait a few weeks for normal shipping or use regular air freight, but instead you have the biggest cargo plane in the world filled with cigarettes straight from the biggest American manufacturer flown directly to your billionaire playhouse for the orgy. You do it because you can.
