Flightplan

Easter egg: Region 2 - On the main menu, if you highlight the lower left screen, it displays one of those Satellite Navigation screens you can find in-flight. As with the 3D model this needs to be fast-forwarded.

Easter egg: Go in to the Bonus Features and then into "The In-Flight Movie: The making of Flightplan." Place the cursor on "D-Connectin Flights: Post Production" and press left twice and a little circle with a > symbol in it should appear. Click on it to hear the director talk about the post 9-11 movie problems.

Easter egg: I found this on the full screen DVD. When you're at the main menu, keep pressing your left arrow button until the leftmost screen (located on the back of the seats) lights up. I'm not quite sure exactly what it leads you to, but it appears to be a 3-D model of the plane. I had to press fastforward to get through it, because it does take a little while. It starts off in English, then cycles to what I believe is German.

Plot hole: The whole concept of a kidnapper 'pretending' his victim didn't get on the plane in the first place is utterly laughable. Even if nobody saw her in her seat, why didn't they see her walking down the aisle to her seat, or waiting to board the plane, or in the boarding tunnel itself? Why isn't she listed on the passenger manifest, or on her mother's travel documents or airline ticket? And there would have been security cameras all over the airport.

Question: So no-one saw Jodie Foster bring her kid on the plane, I understand that. The plane was empty when the 2 of them boarded as they were the first to board. There wasn't anyone else on the plane and as soon as they got to their seats her little girl bent down on the floor to play with a toy, so I fully understand that no-one saw the girl. What I want to know, is how did the hijackers know she was going to be boarding first? Had she boarded much later with other passengers then SOMEONE would have seen the kid, and that would have totally foiled the plan. How could they have banked on her boarding first?

Chosen answer: He didn't know for sure, but he had a hunch. As far as he could tell she would arrive early to register the body for the U.S. and they would let her board the plane first (as a common courtesy, since her husband died) Plus, he knew that she had knowledge of planes and that it was her interest to see a new model of an aircraft that she helped build before it was to take off.
