It would. It would be quicker and therefore less dangerous, and a more direct route.

Now I really want to know why he was on the ship that was bringing Vacuo students to Vale. Maybe he was in Vacuo visiting relatives over there (for some reason, maybe a family member died and he went to the funeral?) and he was scheduled to ship back to Mistral, but decided that since he was just going to jump on another ship/plane to Vale anyway, he'd hitch a ride with the Shade students. Less travelling, and he gets to Beacon to scout out the competition early.
