Yep. Love these movies but agreed but he could have also gotten his battery on the plane like his dad said but if he didn’t listen we wouldn’t have a movie to enjoy and laugh out butts off at Christmas . The guy should have said “are you sure your going to New York?”
Fact: The flight attendant who urges the McAllister family to get on the plane is the Santa's Elf from the first film, in which Kevin commented on her shoes and asked for Santa.
Master Knife 9/11 changed a lot. Not only can you no longer see relatives off at the gate anymore but it increased Islamophobia and created suspicion of brown skinned people and it’s made society more tense and frightened ever since.
The amount of non security measures in this one scene before 9/11 are absolutely frightening. I do miss being able to have family go with you to the terminal though.
When Kate said "Just to make sure everybody gets on" and the man said "Don't worry madam we'll get everybody on the plane" how did they know how many people were in the family? It was funny!
What are you talking about? It's a perfectly normal question. She said "everybody gets on," and he assured her that "we will get everybody on the plane." What's not to get? He doesn't need to know the number. He will find out soon enough.
Ellie Nikolova I know this comment is 2 years old, but for those out there wondering: He probably assumed she was just paranoid and wanted to make sure everyone (that was present) got on the plane. He didn’t know they’d accidentally left one kid behind.
Exactly!!! She wants to make sure her family gets on the plane. The ticket agent doesn't know how many people is everybody. I would of said no! You don't know anybody. Then make a complaint to American Airlines for not letting me make sure my whole entire family was on board and thanks to him, her 10yr old son got left behind
Watching this on Disney plus I paused the movie to come to RUclips to post this EXACT comment. I would’ve politely told them “I’ll be the last to board....just to make sure everybody gets on.”

+Kevin Bull Yes, when I see Kevin stopping to put fresh batteries in his "Talkboy", I feel like saying "don't stop and keep moving and wait until you get on the plane."
+Adrianna De Vega That's true. If Kevin boarded the correct plane, "Duncan's Toy Chest" would be completely robbed out of money where Harry and Marv would have emptied out all the money and then maybe move on to a different toy store in New York or they would move on to a different toy store in a different state.
Actually this is Terminal 3 (T3) at ORD airport and it is still used by American Airlines (AA) to this day. I’ve used this terminal numerous times flying out of SDF airport en-route to either Shanghai Pudong (PVG) or Beijing Capital Airport (PEK). The other frequently used terminal at ORD is Terminal 1 (T1) where I also used it numerous times to get on United Airlines flights to PVG or PEK
This isn't Kevin's fault if anything the Family needs to learn to be ON TIME and manage their time better. Not to mention making sure their alarm is set and PLUGGED IN!
The alarm clock/radio was accidentally reset by Peter McCallister when he unplugged it to remove the camcorder battery charger. The same “oversleep due to clock reset” element was in the first film, except that strong winds caused a power outage.
This time it’s on Peter McCallister the father. He didn’t check the alarm clock when he unplugged it. He should have kept Kevin either in front of him or held on to him and as far as that room service bill goes don’t let your son carry ur bag next time.
Before 9/11 happened they let anyone board a flight if they had a boarding pass, now they check boarding passes to make sure only people who have that particular boarding pass board that flight
Even if Kevin boarded the right plane and went with his family to Florida, their vacation probably would've sucked. There was still tension between Kevin and Buzz, Uncle Frank certainly didn't help, and Florida was just not the right place to be at Christmas time. On the other hand- Kevin's vacation he had alone in New York went very smoothly. It only went downhill because of Harry and Marv, and the hotel staff trying to arrest him
I still remember seeing this in the theater back in '92, and this whole segment was oddly one of the most satisfying of the film, my family and I were all wondering how he would get left home alone again, and we finally found out!
@@sessa9843of course kevin needs a foster family especially ernie smuntz, and ingrid for Kevin's new parents, and lars smuntz for his new uncle, hilde for his new aunt, Phil fimple for his new uncle, marion fimple for his new aunt, Christy fimple, and timmy fimple for his new cousins, Stuart albernathy, Irene albernathy, and alan albernathy for his friends, and james from James and the giant peach for his new brother.
Everytime I go to the airport I pretend to re-enact this scene. And boy do the McCallister's suck at being on time. And accounting for their own offspring. C'est la vie
He's a kid, kids do things like that, we all did as kids, every kid has their items more important than family at some point in their childhood! Kevin was only being a typical kid!
nah man kevin's dumbass didn't need to change his batteries at that moment. a lot of this is on him, whereas the first one you can definitely put on the adults.
"make sure he locates his family" YEAH, VERY GOOD ADVICE, HE THINKS HE SAW HIM, BUT ONLY FROM THE BACK, NOT FROM THE FRONT, NEXT TIME MAKE SURE HE SEES HIS FACE
It's partly Kevin's fault, he should've waited until he got onto the plane to put his batteries into his recorder. But at the same time, it's also his parents fault. They should've come up with a better wake up system, especially after what happened in the previous movie. Like maybe get an alarm clock that doesn't rely on electricity.
I know and if I confused someone else for my mom or dad I probably wouldn’t be able to catch up to that other person so I would end up going the right way with my parents which is good
In my life time, I've seen 4 major events that drastically changed the world. 9/11, 2008 Financial Crisis, the launch of the iPhone, 2020 Covid-19. You can literally see in this scene how the world changed after 9/11. You can never do this today.
Oh hell no bro. I don't even remember if family members had to go through security procedures just to visit family members that were landing. But I don't think they had to. You could just say, yah I am visiting family, and they would let you through to the corresponding gate that family members were landing at. I could be wrong about that though. Although 9/11 has never really been repeated since then, although it was a depressing time period for sure. We were just all more carefree back then. But it sort of happened a second time, but with drinks. Hence the reason why you cannot bring drinks with you anymore for the most part. Unless they are really, really small. I forget what the limit is, but I just choose to never bring drinks with me. I can get some on the plane. It is crazy how many security checks just did not exist in this one scene. Like it blows my mind. But because of some terrorist assholes. Now we have to step everything up. I remember being in 5th grade actually when 9/11 happened. Everything for the day was canceled. I was in the middle of class. The theory I was reading, is that bio terrorism could be the next terrorist attack, and I don't think we would be prepared for it either. I honestly wasn't a fan of how covid 19 was handled. It got way to political and took way to long to do anything about it. At least in america. Other countries cleaned it up alot quicker than we did. I just wouldn't trust american government to handle another major world changing catastrophe.
FortNikitaBullion you seem to forget Kevin is a kid. They would make sure the adult has the appropriate boarding pass because adults are suspicious. Kids generally are not suspicious individuals.
This was back in 1992 but if this were today, they'd be screwed! Ever since 9/11 happened, airport security has really tightened up to prevent another terrorist attack. You have to arrive at the airport 3 hours before your plane leaves. You can't just run all the way to plane like you're trying to catch a bus, anymore. So today, there's no way they'd make it in time.
Yeah, well they arrived at the airport at the time the plane was ready to leave. Luckily flights never leave on schedule. I mean in the first movie they left the house when there was only 45 minutes before the plane leaves and O'hare airport is like an hour drive from Winnetka (The Chicago Suburb that the house is in).
Did no one in the house have an alarm clock. I know in the first one there was a power outage that caused all the clocks to go out but in this one it was just because Kevin’s dad unplugged the one in his bedroom. I never trusted my mom to wake me up in time for school so I always set the alarm myself
I think the reason why in HOME ALONE 2:LOST IN NEW YORK, Kevin McCallister couldn’t wait until he got on the airplane to Miami, Florida to change his batteries 🔋 in his Talkboy tape recorder portable audiocassette player talkie walkie device toy was because Kevin was suffering time management struggles meaning he really can’t prioritize and decide what tasks, parties 🎉 and festivals, chores, playtime stuff, school/homework, and other time events are important and unimportant due to the fact that he has prioritizing and decision-making conflict crisis in his life.
So the kid was smart enough to outsmart some crooks in part 1 and part 2 but somehow wasn’t smart enough to read what gate number his boarding pass was going to leave out of lol
Since part one and part 2 I'm sure O'Hare airport is still popular with these scenes as well as American Airlines must have had a good sense of humor 😂😂😂
The airline employees at the gate didn’t scan their boarding passes, didn’t check for carry on luggage, they didn’t go through TSA, and they didn’t check in their luggage. Wow, that’s amazing to see how things have changed.
How home alone 2 should of ended 1: Kevin should’ve put batteries in his re play corder in the van. 2: Everyone gets up at 8:00 am 3:Kevin spends 50 dollars for a hotel room 4: Harry and marv gets caught with security cams
The plan 1. They woke up early. 2. Kevin should have putted his baterys in when they were in the airport van. 3. Kevin's dad should have looked behind him to see if Kevin was keeping up with him
@@hectorlopez1069 I just find it really saddening though. All because a bunch of fuck heads decided to pull some stupid shit. I read an article somewhere that another attack could come eventually. Bio terrorism. I mean, I kind of agree with it, but At the same time, we wouldn't be prepared for it either. It wouldn't surprise me either. Hijackers and shit are trying to do everything they can to step over security measures without being noticed.
@@hectorlopez1069 No, the only reason boarding the wrong plane does not occur is that gates now have mobile readers (a technology that didn't exist in 1992) that read the boarding pass's barcode to verify the person is boarding the proper flight. Back then gate agents had to manually read the boarding passes, so given the time of year they probably did a one-second glance. As to security, the same 19 9/11 hijackers could easily board planes today with the same weapons, they would just get knives from food establishments after security, and bring their playdough (fake bombs). However, if they started a takeover today, what do you think everyone's reaction would be? I'm sure they won't say, sure you can have the cockpit and we'll just sit quietly waiting for the plane to land for hostage negotiations. This was a one-time deal.
@romino707 They were those days. They stopped letting non-passengers see passengers off at the boarding gate in the mid- to late-90s, and this was filmed in the early 90s.
They boarding staff didn't even checked the identity and/or ID of the family members! How can they be sure who is who regarding the tickets or boarding passes they have received in hands? But yeah, it's just a movie!
Tomasz Wielinski I know of someone who flew her family across the country to spend Christmas with her parents and brother’s family, but her husband wound up having to cut short his vacation to head back to work. So that person offered the extra ticket on the original flight back, to her grandpa so he could go west to visit his siblings, and there was no problem with the flight or anything. Couldn’t do that today!
0:50 Okay, if some of you seen this scene, I'm pretty sure those are gate letters. Gate H leading to Miami Florida and Gate K leading to New York. Kevin shouldn't stop in the middle of the path before the intersection.
No, those are concourses. I worked at O’Hare over the summer and know that entire terminal like the back of my hand. Gates at O’Hare are designated by their concourse letter and a number. So the departure flight to Miami is at gate H17 while the flight to New York is at gate K17.
That is so cold to Kevin that his dad thought everyone was there except his mom she is worried but Kevin following someone who looks like his dad that is why I mention that so cold

I love how the lady Kevin bumped into wears an uniform similar to Arsenal's iconic red and white shirt.
This movie teach you to stick close to your family crowned places and never stop when running for somethings when you are running late
Before 9/11, could you really have gotten on the wrong plane and not be noticed? That's crazy!
Never.
I know right kind of like going to a different movie in a movie theater
FortNikitaBullion you seem to forget Kevin is a kid. They would make sure the adult has the appropriate boarding pass because adults are suspicious. Kids generally are not suspicious individuals.

This was back in 1992 but if this were today, they'd be screwed! Ever since 9/11 happened, airport security has really tightened up to prevent another terrorist attack. You have to arrive at the airport 3 hours before your plane leaves. You can't just run all the way to plane like you're trying to catch a bus, anymore. So today, there's no way they'd make it in time.
Alexander Edward Pytko we can blame Osama Bin Laden for it
Alexander Edward Pytko really? I arrive 45 minutes before
Blame your own government.
3hrs is complete overkill
Yeah, well they arrived at the airport at the time the plane was ready to leave. Luckily flights never leave on schedule. I mean in the first movie they left the house when there was only 45 minutes before the plane leaves and O'hare airport is like an hour drive from Winnetka (The Chicago Suburb that the house is in).
I love home alone lost in New York
Best one in the series
NO tickets machines WOW
Did no one in the house have an alarm clock. I know in the first one there was a power outage that caused all the clocks to go out but in this one it was just because Kevin’s dad unplugged the one in his bedroom. I never trusted my mom to wake me up in time for school so I always set the alarm myself
I think the reason why in HOME ALONE 2:LOST IN NEW YORK, Kevin McCallister couldn’t wait until he got on the airplane to Miami, Florida to change his batteries 🔋 in his Talkboy tape recorder portable audiocassette player talkie walkie device toy was because Kevin was suffering time management struggles meaning he really can’t prioritize and decide what tasks, parties 🎉 and festivals, chores, playtime stuff, school/homework, and other time events are important and unimportant due to the fact that he has prioritizing and decision-making conflict crisis in his life.
A man with priorities so far out of whack doesn't deserve such a fine recorder.
Except he's not a man. He's a boy
So the kid was smart enough to outsmart some crooks in part 1 and part 2 but somehow wasn’t smart enough to read what gate number his boarding pass was going to leave out of lol
0:53 Kevin's family went the right way.
It’s not Kevin fault it’s the dads he should of waited for Kevin .
I think it's both of their faults, but I would put most of the blame on the parents, yes.
I think he should of hold Kevin's hand.
This was the part it was on when I first saw home alone 2 when I was a kid I probably have seen it over a thousand times now at least ha
I love this movie its so good great at Christmas
Since part one and part 2 I'm sure O'Hare airport is still popular with these scenes as well as American Airlines must have had a good sense of humor 😂😂😂
Home alone 2 is great
*My sister and her kids trying to catch a flight to see me and our siblings this Christmas:*
The ticket taker who says “we’ll get everybody on the plan” He looks like a Kennedy.
He's cute.
@@kornmaze if he were fat with a double chin would you say that?
Lol
@@bowens9211 Well no probably they wouldn't... That was a dumb question
Dang Kevin, Couldn’t putting the batteries wait till you get on the plane, goes to show you how kids don’t think sometimes
It’s almost time guys!!!
Any responsible parent would keep all his kids in front of him
i love this movie and it makes me laugh
Nice to hear "Merry Christmas" I will never say "happy holidays" it makes me shudder
Tell me more about the War on Christmas.
The airline employees at the gate didn’t scan their boarding passes, didn’t check for carry on luggage, they didn’t go through TSA, and they didn’t check in their luggage. Wow, that’s amazing to see how things have changed.
Everything was different back in 1992.
Kids get presents and mums gives santa a treat
How home alone 2 should of ended
1: Kevin should’ve put batteries in his re play corder in the van.
2: Everyone gets up at 8:00 am
3:Kevin spends 50 dollars for a hotel room
4: Harry and marv gets caught with security cams
5. kevin says he's going to florida so the lady escorts him to the right plane.
I bet the dad that Kevin was chasing to New York look like his real dad twin brother
The plan 1. They woke up early. 2. Kevin should have putted his baterys in when they were in the airport van. 3. Kevin's dad should have looked behind him to see if Kevin was keeping up with him
He must have gotten confused with the man in the light brown coat. His dad is wearing the same colour too.
If Kevin loaded up his battery on the airplane, then none of these would happened🤣
Yeah then the series would have not been called home alone
Ya, check-in is always 2 hours ahead before take off!🕛✈
Back when airports were less strict with boarding.
Any person can do anything they wanted at the airports. September 10, 2001 was the last day, any person could do whatever they wanted at the airports.
@@hectorlopez1069 I just find it really saddening though. All because a bunch of fuck heads decided to pull some stupid shit.
I read an article somewhere that another attack could come eventually. Bio terrorism. I mean, I kind of agree with it, but At the same time, we wouldn't be prepared for it either. It wouldn't surprise me either. Hijackers and shit are trying to do everything they can to step over security measures without being noticed.
@@hectorlopez1069 No, the only reason boarding the wrong plane does not occur is that gates now have mobile readers (a technology that didn't exist in 1992) that read the boarding pass's barcode to verify the person is boarding the proper flight. Back then gate agents had to manually read the boarding passes, so given the time of year they probably did a one-second glance. As to security, the same 19 9/11 hijackers could easily board planes today with the same weapons, they would just get knives from food establishments after security, and bring their playdough (fake bombs). However, if they started a takeover today, what do you think everyone's reaction would be? I'm sure they won't say, sure you can have the cockpit and we'll just sit quietly waiting for the plane to land for hostage negotiations. This was a one-time deal.
@romino707 They were those days. They stopped letting non-passengers see passengers off at the boarding gate in the mid- to late-90s, and this was filmed in the early 90s.
I'm flying to LA in 2 weeks from London, and I REALLY wanted to change at O'Hare so I could recreate this scene... sigh, it was not meant to be.
They boarding staff didn't even checked the identity and/or ID of the family members! How can they be sure who is who regarding the tickets or boarding passes they have received in hands? But yeah, it's just a movie!
Tomasz Wielinski I know of someone who flew her family across the country to spend Christmas with her parents and brother’s family, but her husband wound up having to cut short his vacation to head back to work. So that person offered the extra ticket on the original flight back, to her grandpa so he could go west to visit his siblings, and there was no problem with the flight or anything. Couldn’t do that today!
This took place in 1992. You didn’t need to show ID for boarding passes back then
This was the Early 90s. Airport Security was VERY lax back then. I fondly remember.
0:50 Okay, if some of you seen this scene, I'm pretty sure those are gate letters. Gate H leading to Miami Florida and Gate K leading to New York. Kevin shouldn't stop in the middle of the path before the intersection.
No, those are concourses. I worked at O’Hare over the summer and know that entire terminal like the back of my hand. Gates at O’Hare are designated by their concourse letter and a number. So the departure flight to Miami is at gate H17 while the flight to New York is at gate K17.
@@Harmonmj13, oh. Okay. Thanks for the answer! I would have known the parts of the airport well.
It’s amazing that TSA’s weren’t around in here otherwise the family would’ve missed the flight.
Regular Invader
Thanks to 9/11 9years later, there's TSA
The TSA was around, they were just way, way less strict.
Great job John 👏
So this was what airport security was like in the 90’s. I had forgotten those times.
They don't show the security in this clip. It starts after they cleared it.
😂 it’s so easy to get lost at O’Hare Airport because it’s so big and overcrowded
I agree it isn’t like Lambert Airport in St. Louis where 2 concourses are vacant and not that much people
that’s the best.movie.ever!
The best sequel ever.
Imagine them taking a trip a third time. Where’s Kevin??😂
What a bunch of careless folks!!
That is so cold to Kevin that his dad thought everyone was there except his mom she is worried but Kevin following someone who looks like his dad that is why I mention that so cold
Kevin should have waited to put his batteries in when he got on the plane
@Mikijpele
Which one, the guy who's asking the ticket attendant to go ahead and board Kevin?
Kevin got the Different Plane.
I’m guessing that woman was fired for messing up as badly as she did.
