Continuity mistake: In the scene towards the end where Gupta stops the plane, it's clear and sunny. At this point, Viktor immediately starts walking down towards the exit. By the time he makes it, it's snowing, and it looks as if it had been for some time.
The Terminal (2004)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Steven Spielberg
Starring: Tom Hanks, Stanley Tucci, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Chi McBride
Amelia (Zeta-Jones) asks a favour from her boyfriend and gets Viktor a day pass to New York. Unfortunately it needed to be signed by the airport official and he refused. The war in his country was over and the official gave him tickets to return to his own country. Viktor, however, makes a run for the doors leading to American soil. Viktor gets the last signature, he doesn't end up with Amelia (who goes back to her old boyfriend), and goes back to Krakozhia.

Joe Mulroy: You better be careful. You know those flight attendants ain't like regular women, Viktor. They're flying back and forth between all those time-zones kinda messes with their biological clock or something. Always ready for sex. Why do you think they can't stop smiling?
Trivia: The passport of "Viktor" is actually a modified one of The Republic of Belarus. It has the same color, back page, and the coat of arms on the front page is the same as of a true passport, with the exception that our Belarussian coat of arms does not have a star on it. (00:04:30)
