The husband of aviation engineer Kyle Pratt has just died in Berlin. Now she is flying back to New York with his coffin and their six-year-old daughter Julia. Three hours into the flight Kyle awakens to find that Julia is gone! It's a big double-decker plane, so very concerned mother has a lot of territory to cover in order to find her daughter. But as Kyle fights to discern the truth, she takes matters into her own hands. Written by Anthony Pereyra {hypersonic91@yahoo.com}

Trivia

In real life, Sean Bean, who plays Captain Rich, is terrified of flying and will do it only when absolutely necessary. See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: When you see the shot of the landing gear touching down on the runway on landing, notice the aircraft does not flare. (Flaring an aircraft means to bring the nose up on landing so that the main landing gear touches down first, then the nose gear. If a plane lands as shown in the movie, there is a risk of the landing gear collapsing, causing the aircraft to crash.) See more »
