All he wanted was to spend Thanksgiving with his family. All he got was three days with the turkey.

Neal Page es un ejecutivo de publicidad de vida muy ordenada y poco dado a las improvisaciones. Se encuentra en Nueva York, a dos días del Día de Acción de Gracias, y su único objetivo es volver a Chicago, donde le espera su familia. Una reunión de negocios se alarga más de lo previsto por culpa de un cliente incapaz de decidirse, y para colmo se avecina una tormenta de nieve que amenaza con dejar la ciudad paralizada. En plena hora punta, conseguir un taxi se convierte en una carrera contra el reloj. Neal intenta sobornar a un hombre para quedarse con un coche que acaba de parar, pero otro viajero se lanza sobre él y se lo lleva. La película, dirigida por John Hughes, sitúa a Steve Martin en el papel de Neal.

Trivia about Planes, Trains and Automobiles

El lanzamiento en 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray que Paramount anunció en octubre de 2022 incluye 75 minutos de escenas eliminadas y extendidas, buena parte de ellas dadas por perdidas y recuperadas del archivo de John Hughes.
El primer montaje de la película duraba tres horas y 45 minutos. Las reescrituras de Hughes y las improvisaciones de Candy y Martin durante el rodaje llevaron a ese resultado.
Hughes quería usar la versión de Paul Young de «Everytime You Go Away», pero la discográfica le denegó los derechos, aunque el propio Young aprobaba el uso que proponía el director.
La versión instrumental de «Power to Believe», grabada por The Dream Academy a petición de Hughes, no se publicó hasta 2014, cuando el grupo la incluyó en el recopilatorio The Morning Lasted All Day.
