미국 링컨국제공항의 매니저인 멜 베이커스펠드(버트 랭카스터 부)는 두 가지 난관에 봉착해있다. 하나는 애정이 완전히 식어버린 아내와의 불화이고, 또 하나는 이착륙이 불가능할 정도의 폭설이다. 방금 비상착륙하던 비행기 하나가 활주로 한쪽을 막고 있다. 이런 공항을 무대로 그랜드호텔식 이야기가 펼쳐진다. 스튜어디스를 임신시킨 비행기 조종사 버논(딘 마틴 분)은 악천후를 뚫고 이륙을 하려고 한다. 승객 가운데에는 무임승차를 밥 먹듯이 하는 할머니와 괴로운 표정을 한 실직 폭파전문가도 포함되어 있다. 할머니는 끊임없이 수다를 떨며, 실직자는 비행기가 이륙한 후 폭파시켜 아내에게 거액의 보험금을 안겨줄 생각뿐이다. 눈은 끊임없이 오고, 활주로를 막아선 비행기를 치우는 것도 힘겹기만 하다.
