At the end of the movie, no deaths were reported prior to the credits. Were no surrogates flying planes? Did the planes just crash avoiding all population centers?
Other than that, fun flick. Third act was a little goofy.
Oh yeah, I think a lot people died by the end there. All the plane & car crashes killed a buttload.
When Tom mentions a holiday to Hawaii, his wife talks of how much fun her friend had with the rental surrogate for hers and that they could do the same. It's possible flying wasn't an option for surrogates; perhaps the connection to the operator wouldn't work with too great a distance, necessitating rentals at the destination with actual travel limited to the human operator. If that's the case, the pilots would be human so the planes wouldn't have crashed (but would've had difficulty landing until the tower staff and ground crew arrived at the airports to replace their defunct surrogates).
shareYou think you still need human pilots in a world were you can have a full surrogate of yourself? Flying is not that complicated.

shareI meant, why you would need a human operator, they are so advanced, I don't see a reason why flying couldn't be automated.
