No definitely safer per hour. "In 2022, the fatality rate for people traveling by air was . 003 deaths per 100 million miles traveled. The death rate people in passenger cars and trucks on US highways was 0.57 per 100 million miles." [1]
Adjusting for a speed difference of 10x it's 0.03 for planes and 0.57 for cars. Which makes sense - it's pretty easy to crash a car, and much harder to crash a plane (there's not much to crash into in the air).1. https://usafacts.org/articles/is-flying-safer-than-driving/
