Terminal
Welcome aboard Flywings, the lowest of all low-cost airlines! Greeting you today is your pilot, Jack, who handles his personal life as inadequately as he does his airplanes. Alongside is co-pilot Charlie, recently demoted from a classier airline, as well as an oddball -to put it mildly - crew of flight attendants: naïve Nelly, erratic Nabil, ambitious Tristan, and social justice warrior Armelle. A disaster safety check or a child who takes over the control system? Our crew of loveable losers - almost - always join forces to handle such absurd situations. And too bad if their methods don’t quite follow airline safety procedures. So why not sit back, and enjoy your flight!
