It seems that if someone had noticed the cries of a tied up lady and saved her, they would have made contact with the airline to check if someone had taken her place.

Another stewardess asks her what happened to Trish, the stewardess assigned to the flight. We next see Annie appearing on the airliner wearing the same stewardess' uniform. To this, Annie sees her opportunity to get on a flight. Trish tells her mother how excited she is that she finally made the London loop.
