The Mountain Between Us begins in an airport terminal with Ben Payne, the main character, waiting for his flight. He met Ashley Knox, a woman bound for home, waiting on the same plane, preparing to be married when she gets there. Their flight was cancelled, and Ben, wanting to get home hired a charter plane.
