Quiz question: Why should you never get on an Oceanic flight?
interplanetjanet
Because they lose passengers on islands in the middle of nowhere with big magnetic field problems and black smoke monsters?
gemini
because you have to pay for your booze.
HEM
Same as with United then...
hughk
Because you wake up with a headache with lots of people running around you...
(Then you really know it is your bad Dharma day).

Doesn't matter if you should or shouldn't fly them - you can't.

You're better off with the others anyway.

Flight 815 is Lost (i.e. fictional airline)

Not just LOST.

The following sources contain Oceanic Airlines.

Original

* Executive Decision: Oceanic Flight 343 from Athens to Washington, DC was hijacked by terrorists.
* Code 11-14: an FBI agent searches for a killer aboard Oceanic Airlines flight 816 a Boeing 747SP bound for Los Angeles from Sydney.
* Lost: The show revolves around the aftermath of the crash of Oceanic Flight 815 from Sydney to Los Angeles. The producers of Lost also created a website for the fictional airline, including clues and references to the show's mystery. In flash-forwards, a group of the characters that return to civilization are nicknamed the 'Oceanic Six'.
* Alias: Oceanic's flight to Sydney is briefly mentioned in an announcement at LAX, when the show's main character Sydney Bristow is there. Alias and Lost were both created by J.J. Abrams.
* LAX: Advertisements and computers in terminals in LAX feature the Oceanic Airlines name in the episode "Senator's Daughter".
* Pushing Daisies: An Oceanic Airlines advertisement can be seen in the travel agent's office in the episode "Pie-lette".
* Chuck: In the episode "Chuck vs the Helicopter", Chuck is viewing a series of photos when one triggers his recall of the secrets. He begins revealing apparently-unconnected secrets including, "Oceanic Flight 815 was shot down by a surface-to-air...", a different cause than what was revealed to have brought down the airplane on the ABC series Lost.
