Robin Duke, an SNL alumnus, has a cameo in this episode as Sharona's aunty. Legendary TV personality Garry Marshall plays a passenger, and Tony Shalhoub's real-life wife Brooke Adams plays a flight attendant who is very irritated by Monk! This episode has Mr Monk taking his first flight, and was broadcast just one year after 9/11. Thankfully Monk, who is Arab-American, didn't draw any racial profiling from TSA or the flight attendants in this episode. A very thoughtful episode.
