Flight To The Future

A plane full of passengers experiences a mysterious time jump in a new drama

- Sean Marland, Richard McClure

Imagine touching down after a short flight to discover that over five years have passed since you took off and your life has changed for ever…

That’s the premise of Manifest, a new US drama from Back to the Future director Robert Zemeckis, which follows the passengers of Flight 828 as they arrive in New York to find their loved ones had assumed them dead.

The phenomenon is most painful for the Stone family, who were scheduled to be on the same plane, but got separated, with siblings Michaela and Ben boarding the fateful flight with Ben’s son, Cal.
