Goofs

Factual errors: In the movie they are drinking single shot liquor bottles made form glass taken from the plane. The Alaska Airlines and BP/Connoco Phillips Shared Services flight only provide plastic bottle alcohol. The final scene where the bottles are broken against a rock could not happen. Also, Guns and Knives are not allowed in the passenger area of Shared Services flights. See more »
