After a humiliating and horrific experience on a commercial flight, Nashawn Wade sues and is awarded a $100 million settlement. Determined to make good with his newfound wealth he decides to create the airline of his dreams. With the help of his cousin Muggsy, Nashawn creates NWA Airlines, the first full-service carrier designed to cater to the urban traveler. A one-of-a-kind airliner, NWAâs metallic purple and chrome-colored plane comes complete with a hot onboard dance club, live DJs and funky music, its own sassy security crew, sexy flight attendants, a bathroom attendant named Johnny, and a first class section where the Cristal flows like the flightpath--non-stop. Departing on its maiden voyage out of Los Angeles, NWA flight #O-69 leaves the ground en route to New York City with a full passenger roster and Capitan Mack behind the controls in the tricked-out cockpit. The passengers include Nashawnâs furious ex-girlfriend, Giselle, as well as Elvis Hunkee, his girlfriend, Barbara, and his two kids. As the onboard party gets more outrageous, the customers get wilder, and chaos reigns throughout the aircraft, Nashawn is forced to land the plane himself and save his airline. With the help of Muggsy, his crew, and Mr. Hunkee, Nashawn brings the plane down in a climax that gives âflying the friendly skiesâ a whole new meaning.
