that can't be. He didn't know it happened again until he arrived to new york. he was just annoyed by the french guy so he gave a funny look. Did u even watch the movie?
Actually there was a Home Alone movie 5th one I think? POS anyway, where the kids DID have a cell phone but it was 'dead'. As if it couldn't've been charged.
Even before cellphones were ubiquitous, whenever my family was out doing something like going to a theme park or going camping or going on a cruise, we always packed some Walkie Talkies that usually had enough range to cover the venue we were visiting at. They were a serious lifesaver sometimes. And they were totally available in the 80s and 90s...
@Kajayacht2 I agree, that was funny especially after he said "I'll be fine" which probably could have told her that he boarded the wrong plane and could have helped him by calling the police to help him get to Florida even though Kevin wouldn't have wanted that after realizing his wish came true.
It's a movie. Even at that time, they would have asked the man if he was Kevin's father and would have also asked Kevin where he was flying to. No way would they have let a minor board a plane alone.
@@RapFanatic4ever The issue here has nothing to do with security as their only purpose, as it is today, is to make sure people don't bring banned items onboard. First, the likelihood of Kevin getting on the wrong plane like he did here (in 1992) was zilch. People did board the wrong planes back then, but again it has nothing to do with security. Boarding passes were rectangle-shaped (usually 2" x 5") and a section was ripped off for the gate agent to collect which was then given to data entry people to document the person who boarded. Given the time of year the movie takes place, this process of data entry could have been done the next day. While the boarding passes had the flight numbers and cities, they used the three character codes only, so Kevin's would have ORD to MIA while others on the plane would be ORD to LGA. Given gate agents were reading over 200 passes in rapid succession they often did not focus well. It was deemed the passenger's responsibility to board the proper flight, they had signs at the gate and the boards would list gates too. Today, they scan the boarding passes into a computerized system, thus Kevin's would have been flagged as the wrong flight in a second.
What the French man said: What's that? I'm from France and I'm a tourist here, it's my first time coming to America. Do you know a good restaurant? Or maybe your parents they know a good place.

@@trevorcolby532 That's true. He enjoyed his time in New York until he saw Harry and Marv where they started chasing him and then he stopped enjoying it even more after being caught for credit card fraud where he said to himself in his hotel room saying "I've had enough of this vacation, I'm going home" being unknown if he was going to take the next airplane back to Chicago and be home alone again or take the airplane to Florida and go on a quest to find his family.
@@trevorcolby532 Yes, I would guess he would have gone back home to Chicago since he would be clueless on where to find his family in Florida and it would be safer for him to go home to Chicago especially Harry and Marv wouldn't have gone back there even if they knew he went home because they knew that the Chicago police were searching for him and they would have to stick to their plan on stealing money in New York and they steal phony passports and hide out in another country. However, it feels like Kevin was going to fly to Florida because when Harry and Marv caught him as he escaped the Plaza Hotel, Marv snatched away his boarding pass which said "round trip to Miami" where Harry tore it up then.
Is nobody going to talk about the seats? Seriously the legroom is amazing at coach class. I would give anything for those seats again compared to today

Kevin would not actually be allowed on the plane if he could not find his parents as he would have to search the whole plane and not just assume his parents are onboard.
At least they got Kevin to the airport this time. They didn’t bother to keep track of him once they got there but they did manage to get him to the airport
They cut this scene in syndication, creating a plot hole. In addition to being funny, the point of this scene is to show Kevin putting on his headphones and turning up his music so that he doesn't hear the flight attendant mention that the plane is headed to New York.

My name is Andre, what's your name”
That's because of these things: First, he was lagging behind the others and he stopped to put the battery into the Talkboy Dictaphone thingy Second, he saw a man, who wears the same coat as his father's, in front of him who looks just his father from behind, so he thought it was him and started to follow him. Third, the man was headed for New York, which the plane for it was ready to depart at the K terminal, so Kevin followed the wrong person, which led him the wrong way And fourth, he did not listen to the flight attendent's announcement that it was an non-stop flight service to New York, as he had music in his ears.
0:58 I'd be willing to bet that American Airlines asked for Kevin to put his walkman on in this scene to try and teach people to not listen to music during takeoff.
This is what the man sitting next to Kevin on the plane was saying: "What was that? I come from France, and I am a tourist here. It is my first time in America. Can you tell me if there is a good restaurant? Maybe your parents know a place. Why don't you answer? You speak French, don't you? I don't speak English at all. Please help me out here. You don't want to talk to me, do you? Are you angry with me? I'll do better..."
I'd choose New York over Florida. To me, spending Christmas in a warm climate just wouldn't feel like Christmas to me. I live near Chicago. If I were to go somewhere for Christmas, I'd also like to go to places like Maine, Oregon, Minnesota, even Alaska.
Florida's for summer. And it was awful. So, ironically, Kevin had every right to complain about going to Florida for a Christmas holiday trip. Wrong season for that.
The term “home alone” means a child left unattended in a house. The movie title isn’t making a reference that Kevin is in a house, but rather that he’s been left unattended again. That’s why the subtitle says “Lost in New York”. He’s “home alone” again.
Fugly kid!! Culkin the poster child for ugly!! I’m from NY and it nauseates me that he too is. God he’s a repulsive kid. Glad he failed as an adult actor, so we have been spared his horrific sickening ugliness.
Ahhh the golden years when flying was more pleasing and adventurous as opposed to post 911 when an average citizen is being treated like a criminal...!
was it after 9/11 that people have to take their shoes off when passing security? i'm not an american and when i was in america i found it strange, because where i'm from we don't have to do that
WOW! thanks for a reminder of changed times. wonder how odd a kid running up to the plane etc and just getting on w/o any paperwork looks to a modern schoolager watching this. let alone most h.s. students don't really get before 9-11 anymore.
"What's that? I'm from France and I'm a tourist here, it's my first time coming to America.

I like how the radar shows only the flights to NYC and MIA, you know, the only ones that matter to us. But a real radar would show other departure flights to Dallas or Los Angeles or Seattle.
Can't really tell at this point if he actually has a southern accent because the speech isn't credible at all and filled with stammers. I did check the cast and the name of the guy is _Andre Lachaumette_, which sounds like a french name, but i according to his phrasing he's certainly more a child of French immigrants, or just a louisiane citizen...
Chris Bennett So you don’t even need to find the name. Just find the only one in the pile that still has the stub on it. Check the name and peel it off and off he goes.
Chris Bennett In my opinion though. I believe it would not even take a minute. Since it would be obvious to find a flappy part of the ticket real quick. You can grab them all, and you know how you stack a set of cards that spilled everywhere if they fell. Just do that if anything too on the desk.
@@Christineog11 A character looking at the camera is not breaking the fourth wall. It's only breaking the fourth wall if a character addresses the audience and is aware of their existence.
I remember the first time I watched this movie.... it was after 2001 so I was shocked to see how pitiful and kindergarten the airport security was.... I asked my dad about it and he said airports were really like that.... now we need to step up security for train travel after what happened in Paris
It is not the security that prevents this from happening, boarding the wrong flight, it is that they scan (barcode) the boarding pass and it would electronically verify if the person boarding has the correct pass. Back then they just ripped the cardboard pass and collected a portion of it for the entry people to type into the system later one, sometimes they were not entered for 2-3 days. It was a person's responsibility to know that they are on the correct flight, though during a Holiday rush, with all the seats taken if someone is on the wrong plane, chances are he/she will have a seat number which someone else occupies and the flight attendant when checking it out may notice the person is on the wrong plane. So security today won't be any different, it is just the scanning system, due to technology not security that will handle it.
@@janefelix3821 Okay but there also wasn’t so much as a city hall metal detector for security back then.... they didn’t have bag x-rays to my knowledge and the definitely didn’t have the super advanced scanner for people
@@HarleyQuinn_93 Your right, outside of airlines, there was not much security unless you went into a high profile area. The airport security was there to prevent guns from coming on planes as there were a rash of hijackings in the last sixties and early seventies and there was fear that a gun going off could pierce the hull and bring down the plane. That was the reason airports had them by no were else did.
@@janefelix3821 That’s all I’m saying.... they had metal detectors for people and maybe for carry on luggage but they didn’t have the x-ray scanners for luggage and people
@@HarleyQuinn_93 By the time the movie came out they did have x-rays for checked luggage, just passengers did not see them. There was Pan AM 103 which blew up via a luggage bomb in 1988 and in the 1980s a number of Columbian Drug Lords blew up planes with suitcase bombs. In those instances the person who checked the bag never boarded as once he check in he just left the airport. Just that the rules for checked bags were different as you could check a gun.
No, it was LGA because JFK doesn’t have a close scenery of Manhattan since the airport is located in between Queens (Jamaica/ Ozone Park) and Long Island. And at 2:09-2:12 LGA airport, the right of the screen is where Rikers and Randalls Island would be and to the left would be Roosevelt Island/ East River and the view of the buildings of Midtown Manhattan.
A simple "Excuse me sir. Is this your son?" would have stopped all of this
When it first comes out its entertaining and funny but when you get older you realize how lazy the airline really was NOT going to his "dad" to identify his kid lol
When you join the real world you'll realize that if they didn't want a lawsuit, she would have gone up to the "dad" to ask him a simple question.
@@KingRey. Then life would be a bore
There was probably no time because the flight was due to take off any minute. She even said the "dad" was cutting it kind of close when he boarded.

They should not have let Kevin run behind everyone else, that way it was easier to lose sight of him

That close up, slow turning of the head to the camera and double blink sells this as the funniest 4th wall break in a movie.
Seems more like he is looking into the distance than at the viewer.
Kevin thought he was going to Florida, but really, he was on the wrong plane to New York
This is useful information
No Shit
That's because of these things:
First, he was lagging behind the others and he stopped to put the battery into the Talkboy Dictaphone thingy
Second, he saw a man, who wears the same coat as his father's, in front of him who looks just his father from behind, so he thought it was him and started to follow him.
Third, the man was headed for New York, which the plane for it was ready to depart at the K terminal, so Kevin followed the wrong person, which led him the wrong way
And fourth, he did not listen to the flight attendent's announcement that it was an non-stop flight service to New York, as he had music in his ears.
@@zachjohns6776 those situations were right
What oh no here we go again
Kevin's second wish is come true again ~ 🗽✈🗽✈🗽✈🗽✈🗽✈
My favorite movie.
0:58 I'd be willing to bet that American Airlines asked for Kevin to put his walkman on in this scene to try and teach people to not listen to music during takeoff.
This is what the man sitting next to Kevin on the plane was saying:
"What was that? I come from France, and I am a tourist here. It is my first time in America. Can you tell me if there is a good restaurant? Maybe your parents know a place. Why don't you answer? You speak French, don't you? I don't speak English at all. Please help me out here. You don't want to talk to me, do you? Are you angry with me? I'll do better..."
why would he fly to new york from france without speaking any english lol
and it sounds like some quebec actor trying to fake a paris accent
Interesting
In the French version the guy was talking Spanish 😂
Heh, his parents chose a poor choice for Christmas spending, New York is thrice as better than Florida
I'd choose New York over Florida. To me, spending Christmas in a warm climate just wouldn't feel like Christmas to me. I live near Chicago. If I were to go somewhere for Christmas, I'd also like to go to places like Maine, Oregon, Minnesota, even Alaska.
Well this New Yorker loves getting down to Florida for Christmas! Give me a break from winter weather any day...
@Eric DeVries Michigan is also a nice place, too.
Florida's for summer. And it was awful. So, ironically, Kevin had every right to complain about going to Florida for a Christmas holiday trip. Wrong season for that.
I will be there at work
1:57 Chicago radar never looks that empty.
Currently AA176 is a flight from Tokyo to Dallas.
This sequel had to be titled City Alone..
I would've titled it "In New York Alone"
The term “home alone” means a child left unattended in a house. The movie title isn’t making a reference that Kevin is in a house, but rather that he’s been left unattended again. That’s why the subtitle says “Lost in New York”.
He’s “home alone” again.
Originally it was supposed to be tittled "Alone Again Lost in New York" But the director who also work on the first Home Alone, decided to changed it
Ironically Culkin is a native New-Yorker
Going back to his hometown, I take it?
Fugly kid!! Culkin the poster child for ugly!! I’m from NY and it nauseates me that he too is. God he’s a repulsive kid.
Glad he failed as an adult actor, so we have been spared his horrific sickening ugliness.
@@cadaverdog1424 Cool story bro
0:53 he breaks 4th wall. We should tell him is the wrong plane 😐
🤩🤩👍🔔🔔👍🎰🎰🎰🎰🎰🎰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
the way Kevin doesn’t know French while he broke the 4th wall makes me funny
Ahhh the golden years when flying was more pleasing and adventurous as opposed to post 911 when an average citizen is being treated like a criminal...!
was it after 9/11 that people have to take their shoes off when passing security?
i'm not an american and when i was in america i found it strange, because where i'm from we don't have to do that
@@FruityHachi Yes, since 2006, 5 years after 9/11, we've had to do that. It didn't used to be that way.
The start of a wild adventure for Kevin.
This is all avoided if Kevin doesn’t run into the gate attendant and the boarding passes don’t get all mixed up
But the question is; Would Kevin still get on the plane, or would they stop him?
2019 Edition:
Plane: 737
Plot: He gets thrown out of the plane.
/s
WOW! thanks for a reminder of changed times. wonder how odd a kid running up to the plane etc and just getting on w/o any paperwork looks to a modern schoolager watching this. let alone most h.s. students don't really get before 9-11 anymore.
It is pretty funny how he boarded the wrong plane and that seat he was sitting in was also empty.
Very unlikely 2 days before Christmas.
Not to mention American Airlines is in Chpater 11 and could be nothing but a memory soon.
The first two #HomeAlone will never gets old
0:32 The look on Kevin’s face...Classic!
LOL I SAW THAT
"What's that? I'm from France and I'm a tourist here, it's my first time coming to America. Do you know a good restaurant? or maybe your parents they know a good place? why aren't you responding? you speak a bit of French right? I don't speak English at all, give me a bit of help at least. My name is Andre, what's your name?"
I just love how the mother “just had that feeling”… some mothers and fathers just always know…
Parents flying first class...kids in coach. Excellent parents.
They clearly never learnt anything from the last movie
Now when you get on an airplane you have to sit in a specific seat the seat you were given to sit in not just a random seat
Tell that to the ones who let Kevin on the plane, just when they are about to leave
Certain airlines don’t offer seat reservations. Like Southwest you board by group number A B And C and you just seat in whatever seats are available
I laughed when he said, "where are those guys?" Obviously you got on the wrong plane lol
How long did it take him to realized it?
Kevin looking at the audience like "wtf?" xD
I like how the radar shows only the flights to NYC and MIA, you know, the only ones that matter to us. But a real radar would show other departure flights to Dallas or Los Angeles or Seattle.
RIP John Heard, and Eddie Bracken.
RIP Peter McAlister
it's true that the guy that portrays Kevin's dad passed away in real life
I love this scene
I don’t know why they didn’t go to New York to begin with. That’s literally the place to be on Christmas.
I would have such a panic attack if I was Kevin
-There's nothing to worry about
**Except for one thing** :P🤣🤣
1:11-1:12 "Our flying time will be one hour and... **becomes inaudible**
travelsonic aaa
This movie gives me so many life goals.... ❤❤
0:04 he says there’s my dad over there as he thought it was him but it wasn’t!😂
Yes I know, lol!
Nawwww really like nobody knew
Jacket
If Culkin was anything like Kevin, imagine what good he would do in the world. lol
Fun fact: Linnie mccallister (the "Les incompétents" girl) is far more good at speaking french than this strange guy in the plane.
Anthony Bobenrieth The french guy has a south accent.
Can't really tell at this point if he actually has a southern accent because the speech isn't credible at all and filled with stammers.
I did check the cast and the name of the guy is _Andre Lachaumette_, which sounds like a french name, but i according to his phrasing he's certainly more a child of French immigrants, or just a louisiane citizen...
Anthony Bobenrieth Possibly may be...
They'd never get away with "where's your Dad?" today!! Bring back the 1990's.
They wouldn't either in the 1990s, it's just a movie.
In real life they take a ticket stub off. So it would have been easy to find Kevin’s ticket since his stub would have been on it!
42luke roblox but there was several tickets
Chris Bennett
So you don’t even need to find the name. Just find the only one in the pile that still has the stub on it. Check the name and peel it off and off he goes.
42luke roblox no time for that.
Chris Bennett
In my opinion though. I believe it would not even take a minute. Since it would be obvious to find a flappy part of the ticket real quick. You can grab them all, and you know how you stack a set of cards that spilled everywhere if they fell. Just do that if anything too on the desk.
42luke roblox there was several tickets on there. His family were way ahead so he probably wouldn’t have Been able to keep up.
I laugh so much at the way Kevin breaks the 4th wall 😆
Seems more like he is looking into the distance awkwardly than at the viewer.
When an actor/character looks at the camera, they are looking at the viewer
@@Christineog11 A character looking at the camera is not breaking the fourth wall.
It's only breaking the fourth wall if a character addresses the audience and is aware of their existence.
I remember the first time I watched this movie.... it was after 2001 so I was shocked to see how pitiful and kindergarten the airport security was.... I asked my dad about it and he said airports were really like that.... now we need to step up security for train travel after what happened in Paris
It is not the security that prevents this from happening, boarding the wrong flight, it is that they scan (barcode) the boarding pass and it would electronically verify if the person boarding has the correct pass. Back then they just ripped the cardboard pass and collected a portion of it for the entry people to type into the system later one, sometimes they were not entered for 2-3 days. It was a person's responsibility to know that they are on the correct flight, though during a Holiday rush, with all the seats taken if someone is on the wrong plane, chances are he/she will have a seat number which someone else occupies and the flight attendant when checking it out may notice the person is on the wrong plane. So security today won't be any different, it is just the scanning system, due to technology not security that will handle it.
@@janefelix3821 Okay but there also wasn’t so much as a city hall metal detector for security back then.... they didn’t have bag x-rays to my knowledge and the definitely didn’t have the super advanced scanner for people
@@HarleyQuinn_93 Your right, outside of airlines, there was not much security unless you went into a high profile area. The airport security was there to prevent guns from coming on planes as there were a rash of hijackings in the last sixties and early seventies and there was fear that a gun going off could pierce the hull and bring down the plane. That was the reason airports had them by no were else did.
@@janefelix3821 That’s all I’m saying.... they had metal detectors for people and maybe for carry on luggage but they didn’t have the x-ray scanners for luggage and people
@@HarleyQuinn_93 By the time the movie came out they did have x-rays for checked luggage, just passengers did not see them. There was Pan AM 103 which blew up via a luggage bomb in 1988 and in the 1980s a number of Columbian Drug Lords blew up planes with suitcase bombs. In those instances the person who checked the bag never boarded as once he check in he just left the airport. Just that the rules for checked bags were different as you could check a gun.
Never realized that Kevin's parents were on executive class while Kevin was on economic class 😂
The parents probably always fly first class with the kids in coach so they can get a few hours peace from them
This was before 9-11-2001! Can imagine what it was like then?
I love this movie!!
The fact that he flew ORD-LGA no problem on a 767 is amazing.
i always thought he was at jfk
No, it was LGA because JFK doesn’t have a close scenery of Manhattan since the airport is located in between Queens (Jamaica/ Ozone Park) and Long Island. And at 2:09-2:12 LGA airport, the right of the screen is where Rikers and Randalls Island would be and to the left would be Roosevelt Island/ East River and the view of the buildings of Midtown Manhattan.
home alone is never an issue. i can be alone happily.
Forever home alone ❤️
Kevin kindly got the last laugh on his family.
