The Flight Attendant spoilers follow.
The Flight Attendant's future is currently up in the air, so to speak. Although season two might not have made the same impact that season one did, there's still a lot of interest in Kaley Cuoco's star vehicle.
And now that the show has broken away from the source material to create something new, season three could jetset anywhere at this point. Although that's assuming the show will indeed return for a third season.
What to Read Next
While there's no official news on that front just yet, Deniz Akdeniz, who plays Max on the show, told Distractify that he's keen to reunite with the rest of the cast again for another instalment:
"So, I have no idea yet [about season three]. But we have such a good time making this show – it's such a family. We were lucky to be able to do the first two seasons, and now if a third one comes up, I think we’d be lucky to go back and do some more."

The Flight Attendant season 3 potential release date: When will it air on Sky and HBO Max?
HBO were extremely confident in The Flight Attendant after season one, renewing it just one day after the finale aired. While news of season three might take a bit longer to arrive, we're confident that if a renewal does happen, the show would likely return in summer 2023.
The Flight Attendant season 3 cast: Who is returning?
Kaley Cuoco's return is a given, of course. Not only does she play (multiple versions of) the lead, but the Big Bang Theory alum is also a key voice behind the scenes too. But who would likely join Kaley in a third potential season?
Cassie's friends Annie and Max (Zosia Mamet and Deniz Akdeniz), Shane (Griffin Matthews), and her older brother, Davey (TR Knight) will all be back we imagine. Megan Briscoe (Rosie Perez) will also continue to play a key role after she went into witness protection at the end of season two.
If her schedule allows it, Hollywood legend Sharon Stone would also reprise the role of Cassie's mum once again, which means that we can expect plenty more fireworks from that dynamic.
One actor who probably won't return is Mae Martin after Grace died by suicide in season two's penultimate episode. Saying that though, Cassie's imagination is pretty volatile, and it's not like dead characters haven't appeared in her mind palace before.
The Flight Attendant season 3 plot: What will happen?
While season one followed the book first written by author Chris Bohjalian, season two of The Flight Attendant forged its own path, and that will also be true of season three. But what might that entail exactly?
After dealing with troubles from both Dot and Grace in the season two finale, Cassie was then confronted by another problem in the form of Jenny. It turns out that she didn't have a podcast at all. She was actually Felix's girlfriend, or even just a crazed fan. Either way, Jenny tries to kill Cassie in order to please him, but with Davey's help, Cassie knocks her unconscious.
At the end, Cassie makes some amends with her mother before going to Annie and Max's wedding. It's a happy ending overall, and now that Annie and Max plan to start their own PI company, future seasons could revolve around Cassie's involvement with this instead of the CIA.
Beyond that though, let's just hope Cassie finds some peace with her sobriety and doesn't wind up getting involved in too many more murders.
