Plot summary
A course for people who are afraid of flying brings together an influencer who has half a million followers, an uptight property developer, a special forces veteran and their instructor. Sarah, Edward, Coco, Charles, Tom, Dries and Ralph are among those taking part. The course's last step is a test flight from London to Iceland, and the journey turns turbulent. The group ends up stranded in Iceland, and the flight home is delayed by nine hours, so they are put up in a luxury hotel with a spa. A storm is approaching that may cancel every flight out of the country.
