The goofs section has this:
"While trying to get his bag into the compartment, a man tries to push past Greg, which causes him to yell "where's the fire?" Annoyed, the passenger sits in the seat in front of him. However, when Greg is being dragged out of the plane you can clearly see the same man sitting in the seats in the terminal, as though he had been there all along."
This isn't a goofthose are all the people who were on the plane with Greg. It is assumed that as soon as Greg told off the flight attendant, she called for security and they boarded the plane and told everyone to exit the plane while they dealt with Greg. Since he presumably refused to go and was acting loony, they dragged him off the plane.
Also, since it's 2:35 AM and the airport is empty, those people in the airport chairs are not customers who are waiting to board a different plane because the time from Greg boarding the plane from an empty airport to being dragged off is only about 5-10 minutes. -

Another one is the "you can't use your thumbs to take a pulse."
I've been a paramedic for 20 years and have taken the pulses of thousands of people. You can definitely get someone's pulse using your thumb. It's just not the preferred method. -

It is not really "assumed". There are erratic people on planes to where they only take off the one causing the disturbance. So because it has to be based on assumption of whether or not they were asked to get off the plane, it was a goof. Or the trivia person could have been someone on set of this and just wanted to let anyone reading the trivia know that it was a goof.
That is how I read most of the things on here anyway.

Ok, but the goof says that there are lots of people in the terminal seating area at 2 AM and it was empty before. I'm saying that those are the passengers who were just on the plane and when Greg joked about having a bomb, they evacuated those people. That's whom we see. It's not a goof!
