It seems that only one character at a time can ride the plane. That seems a bit odd...
I have all three of the characters they offered me on the plane (space marshmallow, Helen Lovejoy, and Bart) and if I owned kumikos skin I could probably send her too, maybe you didn't have enough airline tickets (they take 30 seconds to regenerate)
My task is the find a huge horse from West Asia. I could send Lisa, Mrs. Hoover, Kumiko, and Molloy.
I also have that, but my characters are Princess Penelope, Ginger Flanders (no premium payout, BTW), Sebastian Cobb, and Sailor Moon Kumiko. So, I think it is just random.
I think the characters available per task is randomized. Also, not sure it's been mentioned yet, it will tell you at top of the screen if you've chosen the right task.
After reading this thread I think it's Random too. I am going to West Asia but my characters are different than the ones described here by another poster.

Huh, I got the same exact characters for the 2nd task that I did for the 1st.
