Candice Renoir had put her career on standby for 10 years. When she returns from Singapore to resume service in a port town in the south of France, she feels a bit “rusty”. Despite the obvious defiance of her unit and a cynical superior who doesn’t make her job any easier, she is determined to turn her so-called weaknesses into strengths, solving the most complex cases with her common sense, her acute observation and her practical nature seasoned by a busy daily routine. Only Candice can catch a killer because she knows the chemical composition of a window-cleaning product or determine the hour of a murder from the cooking-time of kebabs… Candice is only naive on the outside, and nobody can resist her!

Welcome aboard Flywings, the lowest of all low-cost airlines! Greeting you today is your pilot, Jack, who handles his personal life as inadequately as he does his airplanes. Alongside is co-pilot Charlie, recently demoted from a classier airline, as well as an oddball -to put it mildly - crew of flight attendants: naïve Nelly, erratic Nabil, ambitious Tristan, and social justice warrior Armelle. A disaster safety check or a child who takes over the control system? Our crew of loveable losers - almost - always join forces to handle such absurd situations. And too bad if their methods don’t quite follow airline safety procedures. So why not sit back, and enjoy your flight!
