An oddball-and-beyond comedy by television graduate performer-producers Michael Wikke and Steen Rasmussen about an airport bus, its driver and its passengers, heading for various destinations in a big city and all getting seriously sidetracked. Gaudy cast of characters includes a Russian rock star and his 19-year-old daughter Elena who were otherwise en route to New York on phony discounttickets.
