When the male flight attendant puts the snake in the microwave, he can be seen hitting the 'snake' preset button on that microwave - a somewhat unusual preset for a microwave.

Goofs

The exterior shots of the aircraft show a 747-400. The interior, however, features a circular staircase between coach and first class. The circular staircase was discontinued and replaced with a long, straight staircase when Boeing introduced the 747-400.

The aircraft is said to be "below nineteen-thousand feet", but the altimeter shows 37,000 feet.

Just before takeoff, some personnel pass the information "Flight 121" to identify the target-plane via radio to the killers. In fact, the special luggage with the snakes would not be able to change planes any more at this time.

Faq

Would a bullet hole in a passenger window cause the effect shown in the movie in real life?

According to Wikipedia, such a hole would merely generate a high-pitched squeal. However, if they somehow managed to make a much larger hole, the plane could be depressurized in less than a second.

Was this film really in IMDb's Top 250?

Yes. There was immense Internet hype over the film mainly because of its title and lots of users rated it a "10" without even seeing it. The film's user rating was originally 8.4, before dropping after more people had seen it.

How much sex, violence, and profanity are in this movie?

For detailed information about the amounts and types of (a) sex and nudity, (b) violence and gore, (c) profanity, (d) alcohol, drugs, and smoking, and (e) frightening and intense scenes in this movie, consult the IMDb Parents Guide for this movie.
