Fright or Flight

Synopsis:
When Nancy first boards her Detroit bound plane, eager to prepare for her court case, her only distraction is Kevin, the needy undertaker seated next to her, but she soon discovers that the plane is defective, the pilot's drunk and the stewardess is a religious fanatic with little concern for the passengers on board. A wild farce that will have you reaching for your call button.
