I think your friend was highly anxious about driving to the airport or navigating the route, but she didn’t want to tell you. She wanted to appear confident. It was easier for her to treat you like you were an inexperienced driver rather than her.
You might be right! She doesn't normally come across as an unintelligent person so maybe that is what was going on.

100% ! !

I know lots of people who are afraid of driving to airports because of all the quick decisions about terminals, Arrivals, Departures, cars double parking, securities personnel monitoring outdoors, parking garages, etc.
