    • Trivia
      Interior shots of the Miami Herald office building were actually shot at the Miami Herald. The crew ran over a few hours, but were allowed to stay because of Dave Barry, then a columnist for the Herald, who wrote the book the movie is based upon.
    • Goofs
      The two F-16s fly with their gear down. When scrambled, an F-16 pilot will retract his gear as soon as the plane is airborne. This is not an error. Jet aircraft fly much faster than the turboprop passenger plane. In order to stay behind the plane, they would be configured to fly as slowly as possible, thus lowering the landing gear to increase drag.
    • Quotes

      [Snake and Eddie are riding in the hi-jacked police car; and Eddie is coming up to the two main Airport signs]

      Eddie: Okay, we gotta pick a road. Arrivals or departures? We're arriving, but then we're departing. Which one, Snake?

      Snake: What do you think?

      Jenny Herk: I think you guys should turn yourselves in and plead not guilty by reason of stupidity.

      Snake: [looks at the signs] Departures.

    Great movie, very funny
    I am so surprised this wasn't more popular. It seemed Sept. 11 ruined its chances. I was enthralled. This movie is consistently funny and silly and satirical all at once. It's a brilliant Dave Barry adaptation. All I could think the entire time was, Dave Barry is a movie. Patrick Warbuton was ingenious, as was the rest of the cast. I highly recommend this to anyone with a sense of humor.
