Airport
and it's three sequels were the star studded grand-daddies of the
disaster movie back in the seventies this April 24, Universal are
releasing all four of the Airport movies in a glossy 4 disc box set.
The
4-disc box set includes the original Airport (1970) as well as
the DVD premieres of its three

The
Oscar-winning first Airport movie was one of the most successful films
of its time, grossing more than $100 million at the box office and
spawning a whole new genre – the disaster movie.
With
a truly stellar cast including Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin, Jacqueline
Bisset and Jean Seberg, Airport provided Hollywood glamour and
high-flying, masterful suspense in equal measure and was nominated for
10 Academy Awards.
The
original’s trailblazing success and winning formula was repeated in
the other films in the series, with a roster of movie megastars
including James Stewart, Jack Lemmon, Charlton Heston and Gloria Swanson
all queuing up to take their seats on the flight of their lives.
