US drama series set in the 1960s, centred around Pan American World Airways. It is the inaugural flight of the new Pan Am jet Clipper Majestic from New York to London. New stewardess Laura has been put on the flight after running away from her wedding and following her sister Kate into the Pan Am uniform. Unbeknown to Laura, Kate has been recruited as a spy for the CIA and faces a dangerous first assignment on the flight. And the team's British lead stewardess Bridget hasn't shown up for take-off, so feisty Maggie has to dash across New York to take charge in time for take-off. New captain Dean is anxious to find Bridget - but even when they arrive in London she is nowhere to be seen.
