Bivši vojni pilot Ted Striker (Robert Hays) nije letio od rata, kada je njegova pogrešna presuda dovela do desetkovanja njegove eskadrile. Sada ima problema s pićem (stalno promašuje usta), a njegova djevojka – stjuardesa Elaine Dickinson (Julie Hagerty) – ostavila ga je. U očajničkoj želji da mu se vrati, Ted je slijedi na njezin idući let… koji strahovito pođe po zlu kada se cijela kabinska posada otruje hranom usred leta! Uz pomoć Elaine, flegmatičnog doktora Rumacka (Leslie Nielsen) i njegova bivšeg neprijatelja Rexa Kramera (Robert Stack) u zračnoj kontroli, Ted će hrabro pokušati sretno prizemljiti avion. No ima li još ono potrebno?

Veliki brod isplovi i punom parom hrli u susret katastrofi. Propast luksuznog putničkog broda RMS Titanic 1912. godine čitav je svijet doživio kao prvi znak katastrofe do koje će jednog dana dovesti tehnički napredak. Njemačkom filmu Titanic iz 1943. pošlo je za rukom da tu tragediju iskoristi kao temelj za antibritansku propagandu. Iskvarena moć novca ili, bolje rečeno, cinični britanski 'berzanski' kapitalizam (Börsenkapitalismus), kako su nacisti pogrdno nazivali ekonomski sustav u Velikoj Britaniji, brod su, navodno, bukvalno otjerale u propast. Vlasnik linije po svaku cijenu je htio postaviti novi rekord u brzini putovanja. On se nadao da će na taj način omogućiti porast vrijednosti dionica njegove tvrtke, što bi ga spasilo od bankrota. Da bi ostvario taj cilj, spreman je i da sve putnike i članove posade otjera u propast. Na opasnost u kojoj se brod nalazi upozorava samo prvi časnik, Nijemac Petersen (izmišljeni lik), ali ga nitko ne sluša.
Omnibus od 5 priča čije se radnje događaju u taksiju, istodobno, no u različitim svjetskim gradovima.
