The Movies You'll Most Likely Find On Your Holiday Flights

December 3, 2009 at 1:05 PM | by cmb | 1 Comment

In an attempt to keep the spirit of Christmas alive in the skies, most airlines, including American, United and Delta, are currently offering a meager selection of holiday movies for your seatback entertainment. Four Christmases, starring Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn as a couple trying to get away from their families, and Elf, starring Will Ferrell as a man who is raised as an elf in the North Pole, seem to be this year's in-flight movies of choice. United is also playing Nothing Like The Holidays, a dramady about a family that reunites in Chicago for Christmas, on select international flights, but overall, its slim pickins' for holiday travelers this year.

If you're looking for some in-flight holiday cheer, the best bet may be to use Google's free WiFi and load up your PC with a selection of holiday classics before boarding your flight. Need some suggestions? Holiday Inn and Miracle on 34th Street are both Christmastime staples that are easy to get lost in, a major advantage when you're on a plane packed with stressed holiday travelers in the middle of flu season. If you're in need of a good laugh, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is a good option and not one that you'll see on TV a hundred times in the month of December. For rom-com fans, Love Actually has eight intertwining storylines that are sure to please. Not to mention, Hugh Grant is as charming as ever in the role of a bachelor Prime Minister who falls for a member of his staff. All of these movies are can be "rented" on iTunes for $2.99 or Netflix with a membership.

    Time to sit back and relax!

    According to a national survey, holiday movies are as quintessential to holiday celebrations as the Christmas tree itself. With the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, there comes a time when one needs to take a break, sit back and give oneself the credit of relaxation. Consumers ranked watching a movie as the best way to chill out during the holiday festivities. So keep the tradition alive and watch a movie this holiday season.

    Awesome movies

    Wow those movies are really nice. It is a pleasure that flight companies really care about their customers. It is always nice when the Christmas spirit is in the air while you are flying somwehere. Four Christmases and Love Actually are really great movies, other ones are unknown for me. But as you have interested me, I decided to download and watch those movies at home. I was able to find all of them on download movies fast website. I hope it will help someone who search for those movies too. Thanks one more time for publishing this article here and I will be definitely keeping an eye on your blog in the nearest future too.
