Synopsis

Marcy earns her place as an airline stewardess and starts building an independent life between flights. Three men catch her attention: a pilot, a scientist and an advertising executive, all called Mike. Their overlapping courtships create comic complications, but the real decision concerns the kind of future she wants for herself.

Cast

Inspirations

The project drew on suggestions from airline hostess Ethel “Pug” Wells, who served as a technical adviser and appeared briefly as herself. Her contribution gives the film a connection to actual airline work, although the romantic complications are fictional.
