The film is very loosely based on Alaska Airlines Flight 261. A plane carrying 88 people experienced some mechanical failure. The pilots did everything they could, but unfortunately, the plane crashed into the Pacific Ocean. There were no survivors of that plane crash.
According to John Gatins, the maneuvers the pilots executed to keep the plane in the air as long as they did inspired the heroic landing in Flight.
