What's left behind the scenes
- Much of the news report about the plane explosion is taken from a real incident that occurred in July 1996. On July 17, 1996, a Boeing 747 aircraft of Trans World Airlines, en route from New York to Paris (Flight 800), exploded and crashed into the Atlantic Ocean just minutes after takeoff. None of the passengers or crew (230 people) survived. The investigation lasted more than four years and led American experts to conclude that the cause of the plane crash was an electrical wiring failure, not a terrorist attack or a design defect in the aircraft, as had been repeatedly claimed in the American press.
- A working title for the film was "Flight 180".
- The film uses music by John Denver, a composer who died in a plane crash.
- Originally, the plot was intended to be used for one of the episodes of the TV series “The X-Files” (1993-2018), and the idea for the plot was inspired by the screenplay for the horror film “Alone” (1984) by Tom Eberhardt. In that film, a girl becomes the sole survivor of a plane crash and is hunted by the dead, carrying out the will of Death.
- It took five days to build the house of the heroine, played by Kristen Cloke. Residents of Vancouver liked it so much that they even asked the filmmakers not to destroy it, as originally planned.
- The news program shown in the film features the very same report from the broadcast schedule of July 17, 1996, which reported on the crash of a Trans World Airlines Boeing 747 over New York.
- At the beginning of the film, Devon Sawa (who played Alex) was supposed to pretend to be asleep. At that moment, he actually fell asleep.
- It took five days to create the shot of Alex's bedside clock, in which the numbers indicating midnight turn into the number 180.
- The scene with the fizzing Alka-Seltzer tablets, after Terry (played by Amanda Detmer) is hit by a bus, had to be extended so that the audience could recover.
- In the scene where Valeri, played by Kristen Cloke, is stabbed with a knife, the actress lay under a false floor, with a mannequin positioned above her, into which the knife was plunged.
- The role of Alex could have gone to Tobey Maguire, and the role of Claire to Kirsten Dunst.
- At the airport, a woman tells Alex that the flight will depart at 9:25, which perfectly coincides with his birthday (September 25th – 09/25 in the American date format). On the plane, Alex is assigned seat I (the ninth letter of the alphabet) in row 25.
- The scene where Carter hits Billy in the face was added to the script due to production necessity. The reason was that actor Sean William Scott developed a cold sore on his lip that day. To conceal it and avoid disrupting the filming schedule, it was suggested to 'split his lip' during an argument between the characters and cover the sore with fake blood.
