Airport ’77 is a 1977 disaster film directed by Jerry Jameson and the third installment in the popular “Airport” film series. The movie revolves around the harrowing events that unfold when a luxury Boeing 747, aptly named ‘The Columbia,’ is on its way to a grand party but crashes into the treacherous waters of the Bermuda Triangle after being hijacked by a group of art thieves.
As the aircraft sinks to the ocean floor, it becomes a suspenseful struggle for survival for the passengers and crew who find themselves trapped in an air pocket within the submerged plane. The star-studded cast, including Jack Lemmon, Lee Grant, and James Stewart, must work together to devise an escape plan before their limited oxygen supply runs out and the plane slips deeper into the depths of the ocean.
Airport ’77 is a thrilling tale of suspense, courage, and ingenuity as the characters confront the challenges of being trapped in an underwater tomb and must find a way to signal for help or escape before it’s too late.
