Trivia
The airport scenes for New York were filmed at London Stansted Airport during January 2021.

Goofs
Luther describes his van several times as a Sprinter, which is made by Mercedes. When the van is finally seen, it is clearly a Ford Transit van. When Hadley first meets Luther, he even says again "it's a Sprinter", yet the "Transit" name on the door of the van is prominently in the centre of the frame.

Quotes
[Last lines]
Narrator: Hadley Sullivan and Oliver Jones will kiss 12,872 times in their life together. They'll be married 58 years, have 1,462 arguments, and make love 5,787 times. Hadley will hold Oliver's hand when Tessa takes her last breath. Oliver will hold Hadley's when she takes hers. And they will both hold their daughter's hand the day she's born and marvel at her tiny fingers and how none of it would have been possible were it not for a missed flight, a broken seat belt, and a choice to love each other every day.

Crazy credits
After the spoken lines, "The Beginning..." shows up on the screen before the end credits.

Predictably clear cut yet still heartwarming

There's no sort of twist in here you just go with the flow where you know the ending goal will be. The journey is what makes it good. It's simple, direct, and wholesome. No wishy washy drama. It has a quiet tone to it. It's like looking at a fire while huddled in your blanket and drinking your cocoa for the thousand time.

I was touched by a certain part of the plot since I can very much relate to it and I thought it was done quite well. The acting is believable. The song helped move it along.

The main characters are nice and sweet. Their lines were heavily dosed on cheesiness partnered with good chemistry and overall everything just screamed wholesome and fluffy...which really that's all I ask for when I'm strapped in my cheesy rom com mood.
