re: Did you notice how big those plane seats are in Home Alone?

I’ve always wanted to visit that house just to plow the statue over with my car.

Kevin’s dad had to be loaded. He took the whole family to Paris including brothers family. Nice house in a great neighborhood. I’m thinking big time attorney or stock market.

I’ve read discussions previously on here about what we think Clark Griswold made per year in Christmas vacation. I’m thinking Kevin’s dad made way more.

those are actual domestic first class seats from an AAL jet at that time

That picture was taken before Mrs McAllister realized they had forgotten Kevin. Afterwards she was a total basketcase but yet fought through her nerves and made it back to him. She is the epitome of what a mother should be.




so go eat a bag of dicks.

the "epitome of a mother" probably doesn't get on that plane unless she is 100% for certain all her children are on that plane. I mean let's back up, a good mother doesn't even leave for the airport until she's sure ALL of her kids are in the car.

And seriously, she had to have a ticket left over when she was handing them out.

Also, the dad had to make like $50M a year or some shite.

I was just watching something about the Western Airlines flight 2605 crash. They had that DC 10 configured for 46 first class seats. Pretty impressive.

What exactly did Kevin's dad do?

Speculation and theories are that he's in sales.

I saw somewhere that he was a executive of Boeing.

Boeing was based in Seattle at the time.

don’t understand why they didn’t call home? They called all the neighbors to check on Kevin but never called home once

That's a good point and I never thought about that.
