No one says "as soon as feasible" ^^ Did you see it somewhere?

Nothing really. The second one sounds a little more professional and businesslike, that's all. You wouldn't usually hear the second one said between friends, but you would see either one on company emails for example.

As soon as feasible or as soon as it is feasible is correct. It means as soon as it can be reasonably done. As soon as possible means as soon as it can be done.

What does it make a scence that reasonably in this sentence? I can't catch the sence of difference between two.

We will start to clean the room as soon as possible. (We will start to clean the room now, even though there are still three people there.) We will start to clean the room as soon as it is feasible. (We will start to clean the room as soon as the three people leave and it is more practical.)

Oh, sorry. In the sentence in the article, you mean. They can fly the girl home to her family immediately (as soon as possible), but perhaps they want to check her health and interview her first (as soon as feasible) so they will fly her home in a couple of days. Hope that helps.

Irika's examples illustrate the nuance differences perfectly, however, I think we don't use them that way, usually.
They are more so synonymous than different.
If someone said, "We will start to clean the room as soon as possible," most would wait until everyone has left before they clean because that is proper etiquette. Therefore, it's just the same as if you had used "feasible".

Yes, what walls0236 says is true. Most people do not use possible as literally as my first examples, I was just trying to illustrate the difference. The article may have said "soon as possible" even if they meant to wait a couple of days to fly the girl home. Saying "feasible" just gives you the extra nuance.

I got it and ”as soon as possible” means in practical ”as soon as REASONABLY possible”.
Thank you so much for all your helpful cooperations!

You're welcome. Yes, possible is used like feasible! Isn't that confusing? Here is one more for you, when people want to emphasize the literal meaning of "possible," they will say, "as soon as humanly possible."^ ^

This is my first time to hear the ”humanly possible” ever.
I'll put it in my pocket. Thank you so much again!
