Come unto these yellow sands, And then take hands: Courtsied when you have, and kiss’d The wild waves whist. The Tempest. Act i. Sc. 2
I was looking at an atlas of the area, and both Fiji (where the plane was rerouted to) and Tahiti (where Danielle's ship was going to or coming from - can't remember) are in an area called Oceania. Right between the 2 of them is the International Date Line. When you cross the international date line you jump forward or back a day in time (depending on which way you cross it). This makes me lean more toward the time/space warp theories.
What do you think?

I somewhat support that theory. I think that yes there is somewort of time warp alternate dimension going on. But i looked at a map also and tried to figure it out as well this is what i came up with:
The pilot said that they were 6 hours out of Sydney when they turned back to Fiji. Danielle said that they were three days out from Tahiti. That acording to the map I was looking at would bring them somewhere near..... well just North of fiji...where there is nothing of course.
Now, Oceana is a large broad area which is a owrd use dto describe a bunch of Islands in the S. Pacific. But if the theory of the time warp or alternate dimension is true hypothetically then it wouldn't be on the map right? It would be a place that is unseen by anyone until they pass through the time sheild so to speak. The fact that there is the dateline may also support the theory because when you cross a time zone in the middle of now where....who knows what will happen!

Wasn't Oceana the name of the airline they were all on?

That's what I thought at first, but I went back and looked and realized the airline was Oceanic, not Oceania. But I also noticed that the O in the airline logo looks kind of like an island.

uhm. what? hundreds if not thousands of people cross the interntional date line every day without getting lost in time or space. I did it myself - we had a huge party the evening that we lost a day.
Yeah, but we're not all living in a sci-fi tv show.
