The Red Eye
Short stories about the extraordinary true travel experiences of flight attendants, pilots and their passengers. A peak behind the curtain into the lives of those who travel for a living. In the world of aviation and world travel, we experience everything from thrilling dramas to side-splitting comedy and life-altering moments, each episode immerses you in a world of adventure. Enjoy a brief escape, as real-life events take on a fictional flair, transporting you from the aircraft’s cabin, to the ground, and across the globe.

The Long Ride Home
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When the tragedy of 9/11 occured, airline crews were displaced all over the world. In the USA, anyone who was travelling on a standby or companion ticket was told they wouldn't be flying home any time soon! The aviation industry came to a standstill.
When a Captain finds out his mother and sister are stuck in Vegas and he can't get them home on the jumpseat of his aircraft, he finds the only way he can to get them back to the UK. But it involves a very long ride on the Greyhound across the United States.
