That’s happened multiple times with planes, not just once last year.

It happened as recently as last month

Here are more:

July 2023

June 2023

December 2022

May 2022.

I could keep going, but this is hard on mobile.

Point is, that happens with planes, too. That’s a logistics issue, not about the method of transport.
