== Synopsis ==
The episode begins with Ken Stringfellow singing his hit song "Reveal Love". Meanwhile, Squidward is walking outside his house to check inside his mailbox. He sees SpongeBob and Patrick inside it and pushes them out. Squidward tries to head back inside his house, only for SpongeBob and Patrick to show up inside, asking him about his mail. Squidward sees a plane ticket for a trip to Bora Bora Bottom, which SpongeBob and Patrick entered a contest for him. While Squidward imagines himself at a resort, he notices the trip includes his family, which SpongeBob and Patrick have registered themselves as.
SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward are seen waiting in line at Bikini Bottom Airport. When called up, Squidward shows his ticket, and he is announced as the contest winner. The three then get their "family" picture taken. While on the plane, Squidward is assigned to sit between SpongeBob and Patrick, to which he tries to move to the aisle seat, but is forced back to his assigned seat by the flight attendant. The plane soon takes off after SpongeBob and Patrick overly strap their seatbelts on. They switch seats just before the plane gains altitude.
SpongeBob and Patrick run down the plane aisle, before eventually falling asleep, but Squidward, still awake, begins to cry. Patrick ends up needing to use the bathroom later on. Trying to find one, he opens a door that sends two flight attendants falling out of the plane. Squidward, still tangled to his seatbelt, tries to get the flight attendants' help, but he only gets Patrick, who now is a flight attendant. Patrick forcefully pours coffee into Squidward's mouth. SpongeBob notices Patrick is now a flight attendant, and Patrick makes him one too.
Squidward is freed from his seat after SpongeBob dries the coffee off him. SpongeBob and Patrick serve snacks down the aisle and end up crashing into each other, as well as Squidward. Squidward tries to speak to the captains in complaint, but Patrick opens a door that sends them falling out of the plane. Squidward panics, now seeing no one flying the plane. He presses a button, but it sends the plane falling. SpongeBob, Patrick, and Squidward see Bora Bora Bottom in sight, and the former two encourage the latter to land the plane.
Squidward makes a successful landing to Bora Bora Bottom and gets ready to enjoy the resort. Soon after, however, the plane travels in reverse, with SpongeBob revealing that the plane was traveling on auto-pilot. Squidward tries to get off the plane to stay at the resort, but SpongeBob explains that the trip was only to see the resort briefly, and not actually spend time there. The plane ascends into the sky, and SpongeBob and Patrick announce and laugh on the speaker, with Squidward screaming in agony, as the episode ends.
