The Flight Attendant’s second season will launch on HBO Max on April 21st with two episodes. The eight-episode season starts on April 28th with two new episodes, continued by one episode every week until May 26th.
The Flight Attendant with Kaley Cuoco premiered on HBO Max in 2020 and came on Sky five months later, with eight episodes of pure binge-worthy black comedic pandemonium.
The series begins with Kaley’s character Cassie, a drunken flight attendant, getting up in a Bangkok hotel room beside the dead body of a customer she went on a blind date with after they landed in Thailand, based on the Chris Bohjalian book of the same name.
It was nearly impossible not to keep pushing play the next episode as she attempted to piece together the night & clear her identity.
We’re hardly surprised, given the show’s spectacular ending and subsequent Golden Globe nominations, that it was renewed for a season 2 almost quickly after its premiere. Here’s everything we know about The Flight Attendant season 2 so far, from the cast to the probable plot.

‘The Flight Attendant’ Season 2 Release Date
The Flight Attendant Season 2 will be released in the United States on April 21st, according to HBO Max. Fans in the United Kingdom will have to wait a little longer, as Sky Max and NOW have announced that they will be streaming it in May. We’ll let you know once they’ve confirmed something more precise.
‘The Flight Attendant’ Season 2 Expecting Cast Details
While Cuoco will reprise her role as Cassie Bowden, we expect to see colleague flight attendant Megan (Rosie Perez), lawyer Annie (Zosia Mamet), and her brother Davey return as well (T.R. Knight).
There will be some new characters to meet, so say hello to them as well. Sharon Stone, who played Cassie’s mother in Catwoman, was cast as Cassie’s mother in the second season, which premiered in January 2022.
She’ll portray “estranged” parent Lisa Bowden, according to Entertainment Weekly, who lacks “any compassion or goodwill to offer her daughter after a lifetime of dealing with her alcoholism.” Ooh.
‘The Flight Attendant’ Season 2 Trailer / Promo
While there isn’t a complete trailer yet, due to an HBO video, we have a number of interesting teaser clips from The Flight Attendant season 2.
Everything coming on the show in season 2, including footage of Kaley Cuoco reprising her role as Cassie, is teased in a video published by the streamer, and it’s all extremely exciting.

Though the film is brief and pleasant, we can witness three scenes in which Cassie appears. The first shows her out on the street, appearing serious, angry, frightened, followed by footage of her clapping and smiling while seated on a bar stool in a v glam gold evening gown. Cassie is stunned again later on, and we can’t wait to see what’s going to happen next.
‘The Flight Attendant’ Season 2 Plot Synopsis
Cuoco teased that the second season would be “exciting and possibly a little insane,” while HBO stated that Cassie would embark on a “new adventure.” Season 2 will be like “a new Hitchcock movie for Cassie to wander into,” according to showrunner Steve Yockey.
Cassie will be trying to get sober and focus on the CIA’s new interest in her, according to Cuoco, who teased the upcoming series. “She’s [Cassie] absolutely going to be attempting to live a clean life while still trying to be who she was,” she said in an interview with Variety in August 2021.
“I think that’s going to be her biggest difficulty,” Cuoco remarked, “‘Am I the same person I was before?’ Is it possible that people will like me? ‘Do you think I’m still entertaining?’
“This is someone who is her usual self, when she’s slowly basically medicating her self all day long,” Cuoco said of her character’s fight to get sober. And it’s only when all of that is removed that she begins to crumble.”
Cassie will also experience changes in other aspects of her life, according to Cuoco. “She’s also a CIA asset,” she explained, “which is a very modest position.” She’s a minuscule asset. However, she appears to be perplexed as to what is expected of her and finds herself in a predicament she should not be in.”
Is There Going to be any Major Changes in Season 2?
Yes, they do! Meredith Lavender and Marcie Ulin, two of the showrunners from season one, announced their departure from the programme, while Heroes producer Natalie Chaidez was hired as a co-showrunner alongside Steve Yockey.
The most significant change, though, is that Series 2 will now be shot in a different state. After securing a significant tax credit, the second season will be shot in California. Series 1 was shot in New York, Bangkok, and Rome.
