Flynn and flight attendant Claire regain control of the plane while Rick retakes the controls and has Flynn go into the cargo hold to restore the air conditioning/ventilation system. The passengers flee to the upstairs first class cabin before blocking the stairwell with an inflatable life raft. Rick is attacked and the plane starts to dip downwards, causing a food trolley to crash through the luggage blockade. The surviving passengers, who have made their way to the front of the plane, put up blockades of luggage in a desperate attempt to stop the snakes. Numerous passengers, including Agent Sanders, are killed when the snakes invade the cabin. Some of the snakes attack Rick, and while fending them off he accidentally releases the oxygen masks throughout the plane, causing most of the snakes to drop into the cabin with them. Co-pilot Rick, unaware of the snakes, believes Sam has suffered a heart attack and continues toward LAX. The plane's captain, Sam McKeon, investigates the power outage and fixes an electrical short, but is killed by the viper that caused it. A couple having sex in a bathroom and a man using another bathroom are the first people killed. The crate opens midway through the flight and the snakes make their way through the cabin, with a viper attacking an electric panel in the process, thus shutting down the power. To ensure the snakes indiscriminately attack everybody without the need for provocation, he has one of his henchmen disguised as an airport ground employee spray the passengers' leis with a special pheromone which makes the snakes highly aggressive.
