You've just about had it with movies in which children vanish from planes; psycho killers ply women with Sea Breezes at the airport bar; and Liam Neeson, Wesley Snipes, or Kurt Russell so much as go near a 747. You'd rather not think about pilots getting drunk, Air Force One being taken hostage, or snakes somehow making their way onto your flight. Chill out, Hollywood.
Luckily, not every movie scene involving air travel will put the fear of god in you. There's Rick and Elsa parting ways at the Casablanca airport. There's Snoop Dogg playing the world's most stoned pilot (we hope). There's George Clooney racking up miles. That we can live with.
Click through to see some of our favorite flight scenes. Nothing scary, we promise.
Goldfinger (1964)
Funnily enough, James Bond (Sean Connery) and pilot Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman) never quite joined the Mile High Club. Their sexy banter must have at least fogged up the windows, though.

This classic disaster film parody is full of gems, but the female passenger getting shamed for dying single is a favorite (and for some of us, a tad relatable).

If you happen to be squashed next to a chatty salesperson who insists on removing his or her shoes, be patient and have an open mind. You may be inviting them over for Thanksgiving. Or maybe, you'll just submit them to Passenger Shaming. Either way.

Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan) met for the second time on a flight — during which Harry ruined taking a lover to the airport for everyone.

Should you ever find yourself on a Zeppelin with an evil Nazi, pretending to be a ticket-taker is a neat trick.

So long as you didn't mind some outrageous sexual harassment, Austin Powers' (Mike Myers) personal jet was pretty groovy, baby.

That thing when you're desperate for the bathroom and Adam Sandler and Billy Idol are blocking the aisle for ages. Cute proposal idea, though.

Few things are worse than having your seatmate sing "War" at the top of his lungs.

A seriously bummed Catherine Banning (Rene Russo) is the passenger you do not want to sit next to, at least until she discovers Thomas Crown (Pierce Brosnan) sitting behind her. Apparently, this airline does not frown upon in-flight frolicking.

Just a friendly reminder not to say the word "bomb" anywhere near the airport.

The only time someone has mistaken Drew Barrymore for LL Cool J.

Meredith Grey and Leonardo DiCaprio on the same flight? We can't handle it.

No one has ever been cooler at booking or boarding a flight than Uma Thurman's The Bride. Having a killer soundtrack also helps.

You didn't expect Samantha Jones to fly economy, did you? Carrie Bradshaw and her crew flew to Abu Dhabi on the fictional, totally pimped-out Afdal Air. Of course the tone-deaf film's big drama was whether or not they'd miss their luxe flight back. #Problems.

Don't mix prescription drugs with booze, don't antagonize the flight attendant, and don't let your seatmate freak you the hell out.
