The success of Airport spawned
three sequels, of which the first two were box office hits.
Airport 1975
Airport '77
The Concorde: Airport '79
Airport 1975 is a 1974
disaster film and the first sequel to the successful 1970 hit Airport.
Unlike the original film, Airport 1975 was a bona fide "blockbuster"
disaster film, with an "all-star" cast and extensive promotional
campaign. Though derided by the critics upon its release, Airport 1975
was ultimately a success. With a budget of US$3 million, the film made
over US$47 million at the box office.

Airport '77 is a 1977
disaster film and second sequel in the Airport franchise. The film is
generally considered the best of the sequels due to the quality of the
writing and acting, even if the technical feasibility of the ditching
and subsequent submersion of a fully pressurised 747 might be
questioned. The film starred a number of veteran actors, including
Jack Lemmon, James Stewart, Joseph Cotten, and Olivia de Havilland.
Like its predecessors, Airport '77 was a box office hit earning US$30
million but marked the series' progression into increasingly unlikely
plots.
