If an airplane is going 600 miles per hour against the spin of the earth which is 2400 mph approximately and the air plane is 30k miles up in the air? How is a flight going some where against the spin then back is the same time?

And how does the spin of the earth affect an airplane 30k miles up in super thing air? What is transferring the movement from the ground to the super thing air 30k miles up?

Everyone on earth is spinning the same direction. So if the plane is spinning as well, and going 400mph the other way, it will move 400 miles the other way in an hour. That spot on earth will be moved too, but the plane the earth and all the lil babies in between moved too, so it closes the gap as expected.
