Alternate versions

All the home media releases released between 1997 and 2001 feature the 1994 United Artists logo as the sole opening logo.

There are extra MGM logos including one that precedes the MGM/UA Communications and United Artists logos, in the post-2004 DVD prints and 2010 Blu-ray. But in the 25th anniversary remastered Blu-ray, all three logos remain intact except the opening and closing MGM logos are both plastered with the 2012 variants.

Most airline versions of the film completely cut out the discussion of crash statistics. The reference to Qantas being the only international airline to have a perfect service record was deleted from the in-flight version of the movie by all international airlines except for Qantas.
