- TriviaWhen Larry is on the elevator to the union meeting he says "Surely you can't be serious." When Julie Hagerty responds he replies "but should I stop calling you Shirley?". This is a reference to Chuyến Bay Tình Yêu (1980) in which Hagerty also stars as a flight attendant.
- GoofsWhen Larry gives the safety spiel, he says the plane is a 737, but seating configuration indicates it's a wide body.
- Crazy creditsAfter the credits, there is a scene with the editing director who just finished reading the book

Featured review
This is the story of highly self-absorbed flight attendant Larry Gaye, a name which is certainly designed for obvious word pun. Most of the comedies are crude uncomfortably sexual innuendo in shameless fashion, the vain larger than life persona doesn't really take off in this regard. The exhausting tired jokes aside, it does deliver several good moments with witty awareness and fourth wall breaking quips, the few nods to Airplane! are also nicely done.
There's not much plot to be had. Larry Gaye is made from bits of choppy drama and aviator humor, both of which present barely adequate material in sporadic manner. The way it presents its humor is relentless, so if one particular scene doesn't work, the excessive effort is wasted and the film can be tedious. Unfortunately, this involves repetitive sensual undertone and the Gaye jokes can be tiresome after a few jabs.
It is when its best when Larry self-deprecates himself in mainly clueless manner or the film mocks on its own silly plot with an ironic seriousness. The tongue in cheek approach works with the help of the diverse actors who are experienced in the genre. Several scenes at latter half fare better as it deal with relatable and light banters instead on forcing the flamboyant aspect too much.
There are a few good chuckles underneath the turbulence of painfully narcissistic jokes and nasty sexual innuendos for a light popcorn flick.
