Dorien is treating herself, Sharon and Tracey to a Christmas holiday in the Canaries but even before the plane has taken off annoying passenger Morgan's predictions of disaster have caused nervous flier Tracey to hit the bottle whilst Dorien makes a play for a handsome but unresponsive man who locks her in the toilet to get rid of her. When Sharon's bath salts start to leak Morgan declares that there is a bomb on board and the flight is postponed.
