Having worked extremely hard in the last couple of years you finally decided it's time for a trip to Hawaii …

Additional items: Plane phone, Gun

Starting with credit card and Lighter, you look around your seat:

take MAGAZINES and (used) THROW_UP BAG from seat pocket
try to crawl under your own seat: LIFE JACKET is in the way. Take LIFE JACKET
crawl under seats to back of your (economy, of course) section. On the way, lying on the floor are 100 DOLLAR BILL (whose owner is too scraed to move to pick it up), PEN, CANDY. Pick all these up.
Behind last row of seats are 2 plane phones. You try to take one PLANE PHONE, but it is too risky that your hand will be seen.
However, looking at plane phone will let you take a note o f the phone numbers withPEN on MAGAZINE.
There is also a smoke/heat detector.
use LIGHTER on MAGAZINES (or 100 DOLLAR BILL) .. fire gets out of control and you leap into aisle to escape it. Get shot and plane goes down in flames. You lose.
restore saved game
use LIGHTER on deetctor... the heat sets off the alarm safely, creating a distraction. You the  take PLANE PHONE and nip around the corner into the kitchen/tiolet area
go into toilet... toilet occupied light goes on and hijakcers riddle the toilet with bullets. You lose.
Restore game.
Need way to keep door open. Kitchen has FIRE EXTINGUISHER. Take it and use FIRE EXTINGUISHER on TOILET DOOR
Enter toilet. With door open too noisy to try and call for help on PLANE PHONE,  they would hear you.
Take TOILET PAPER and FIRST AID KIT from toilet.
Back in the galley, search some more and find the drinks/food trolleys locked away. use CREDIT CARD on lock and unlock the trolley.
Now wait for hijacker in economy section to be in the aisle. Push trolley down aisle, knocking him to his feet. Jump over trolley and tie up bad guy with his own KEY CHAIN. Take bad guy's GUN.
In next toilet section, use FIRST AID KIT to jam open doors and take more TOILET PAPER. Use MAGAZINES and TOILET PAPER on  LIFE JACKET to make a bulky, but effective on small weapons BULLET-PROOF VEST. Wear VEST.
Wait for business-class hijack guy to be walking away from you, run at him. He has time to get one shot off, which destroys your BULLET PROOF VEST but absorbs all the impact, so you are unhurt. Shoot hijacker with GUN.
The cockpit door is locked and talking to the business class passengers reveals that there are two men inside, one piloting the plane.
Call the the other plane phone with your  PLANE PHONE. One hijacker comes out to investigate. Shoot/knock him out.
Enter the cockpit. If trying to go near the pilot, he swerves then plane all over the placeand you fall over. If you shoot him, he slumps ofrward onto the controls and the plane dives into the ground before you can get him out of his seat.
Throw THROW-UP BAG at windscreen, wher eht e puke splatters the screen. Pilot stands up to wipe it off, whereupon you can attack him and subdue him.
However, now there is no pilot....
Serach cockpit lockers and find captian handcuffed in there. He says that one of the hijackers swallowed the key.
Try to disembowell each hijacker using CREDIT  CARD (as no sharp obejcts allowed on planes these days)... fails
However, a mother with a young child is changing its nappy and she has BABY OIL.
Apply BABY OIL to handcuffs and pilot can get his hands free.
Pilot lands plane and you are the hero! eat CANDY to celebrate.

you have a FIRST AID KIT on an air plane, stands to reason that it should have somthing to calm people down in case of a panic attack or if they are anxius about flying, mix those pills with alcohole and you have something that will knock out someone, to make it more obvious i'll change SLEEPING BEER BOTTLE to SLEEPING PILLS and rewrite abit so it makes more sense

I couldn't access the Internet for a couple of days, and when I did ... look what I've got! Two amazing entries by SSH and yaron, and --hopefully- an entry by Ginny in the coming two days -since that's the time left until we start voting-!

yaron, your explanation of the SLEEPING BEER BOTTLE is smart and convincing!

SSH, I loved the ONE-SHOT BULLET-PROOF VEST you made out of TOILET PAPER, MAGAZINES and LIFE-JACKET, that was creative.

Sounds like a good idea, I'll get to work on it today, and see if I have a good result :).

Ginny, I really hope that you make it in time!

I feel I am expected to come up with a losing entry.

Start with 3 bottle of Beer and Lighter.

LOOK Aisle.
'One of the Hijackers is walking towards me, he looks nervous, he's fumbling for a cigarette.'
LOOK Hijacker
'Looks very nervous, apart from that he's very intimidating, dressed in full 'Hijacky Get-upTM' Order yours today! consists of: One Woollen Ski mask, One Pair of knife proof Combat trousers and lightweight bullet-proof vest!'
TRIP Hijacker
'He approaches and is so distracted by his inability to open a pack of cigs that he fails to notice your foot sliding in front of him.'
*CRASH*
'The Hijacker's pack of Matches and Cigarettes has burst out ove r the floor, he kneels done and begins frantically grabbing them.'
KICK Matches
'Using your foot you manage to slide the pile of matches undetected under a nearby seat.'
HIJACKER: 'Wh... where are my Matches?!?'
RIG Lighter
'You rig the lighter and test it, it provides a satisfying 5 inch flame.'
GIVE Lighter to Hijacker
YOU: 'Excuse me, would you like to borrow my lighter?'
HIJACKER: 'Oh, yes, thanks!'
'As the unsuspecting fool leans over your lighter you, grin inwardly with glee.'
*THOOWPH*
HIJACKER: 'ARGHHHHH!!!! YOU SET FIRE TO MY HIJACKY GET-UPTM WOOLLEN SKI MASK!!!! ARGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!'
'He runs up and down the aisle clutching his face, beforeyou trip him up rendering him unconcious, out of kindness you stamp on his mask to put out the fire, but you forget to take the mask off his head first.'
TAKE Throw-up Bag
GET UP
GO TO Cock pit
'That's would be where all the Hijackers with Guns are right? .....No.'
GO TO Freight Storage
'You arrive in the Freight storage, there is very little light here and all you can make out is a mysterious cage with a tarpaulin over it.'
USE lighter
'The lighter flares up providing a better view, Nearby you see a Crate with military grade AK-47s.'
Open AK crate
*GRUNT*
'The Crate appears to be nailed shut, Bolted To the floor, Chained to a nearby Nuke and rigged With 14 tonnes of C4. You feel glad it won't open for some reason.
LOOK Pile o' Crates
'It's a pile of crates, this closest one has a Japanese label.'
OPEN Jap crate
'It's locked.'
GOTO Cabin
'You approach the cabin, but fall short of the door when you hear some hijackers talking.'
USE Beer with sick bag
USE Beer Bag with wall
*CRUNCH*
USE Beer-soaked paper bag containing shards of glass with lighter then with door
'You light up your weapon of mass dstruction and hurl it through the door, By some odd magicalness it explodes and sends hundreds of shards of flaming glass at the two Hijackers shredding and cremating them in one move.'
TAKE Gun
GOTO Freight
USE Gun on Jap Crate
'You blow off the lock and open it to reveal a dozen miniature ninja suits complete with katanas, what odd cargo.'
LOOK Mysterious Cage
'You approach the cage and here a low growl from within.'
GET Ninja Suits
USE Ninja suits with Mysterious Cage
'You here excited chatter from within.'
LOOK Mysterious cage
'It's mysterious, It also has a Mysterious Padlock on the side, it's use? a Mystery.'
USE the last Beer Bottle with lock
'you place the bottle in lock, and pray to the Laws of Ben Jordan, you then strike up your lighter and blow the lock open.'

END CUTSCENE

'All is silent, no, wait.... you hear the unsheathing of many Ninja swords.... You think you see shadows moving within shadows... then a shrill battlecry:


'NINJA LEMURS OF ULTIMATE DOOM! ATTACK!'
A dozen humanoid shapes burst down the corridor and rush forward to the cockpit slaying all who are there, sadly this includes the Hijackers and everyone capable of flying a plane! but never fear for these ninja lemurs have another ability up their ninja sleeves! Can they fly a plane? No! Can they signal for help in mysterious ways? No! They can ressuret the Captain in Voodoo zombie form force him to land the plane then exorcise his unholy spirit back to hell!'

I got bored so I just speeded it along at the end, and I didn't use enough Items.... but NINJA LEMURS RULE!

Ginny

Sorry I couldn't enter. Lots of physics homework was preventing me from it, because they were so interetsing ;).

You still got 3 very good enties.
I vote for... yaron. I really loved how you made everything the player does urgent, I could see the character running around, as opossed to walking calmly around a hijacker filled plane. The sleeping beer bottles are great, and providing another solution was a nice touch :). The exploding beer bottle + extinguisher contraption is brilliant too.
OffTopic, are you from Israel?

SSH - I love your bullet proof vest! It even sounds like it could work ;)

Mephis, if I may note on something: While Ninja lemurs are always cool on their own, they don't really fit into this airplane Puzzle. Your whole puzzle was very interesting, I found the Hijacker Getup ski mask burning method brilliant, up until the part where the lemurs came in, then it lost all logic. That can of course work for very humourous games, but I find some logic is crucial. Keep trying :).

It's really hard deciding for whom to vote, but here it is ...

My vote goes to SSH.

yaron your entry is brilliant, but has lots of explosions; and so I'm voting for a bit more realistic approach -ignoring the toilet-paper-one-time-one-shot-bullet-proof-jacket-.

After 8 hours from now I'll be announcing the winner.

AGS-GD

And the winner is:

yeron

Congratulations, you may now start the next Puzzle Time ...
