Christmas Above the Clouds
Things are looking spiritually turbulent in Christmas Above the Clouds! When workaholic CEO Ella Neezer (Erin Krakow) tries to outrun the holidays by jetting off to Australia, she ends up on the flight of her life instead. Haunted by visions of her past, present, and future, Ella is forced to confront the choices that brought her success—but also left her all alone. With the help of three delightfully quirky spirits and a chance encounter with her ex (Tyler Hynes), this modern Christmas Carol at 30,000 feet might just help her rediscover the love and magic she’s been missing.
Christmas Above the Clouds will premiere on Saturday, November 8, 2025, on Hallmark Channel as part of Countdown to Christmas (and is available to stream the following day on Hallmark+.)

About Christmas Above the Clouds
- Christmas Above the Clouds was directed by Peter Benson. As mentioned, Peter has quite the holiday directing resume this year having directed A Royal Montana Christmas as well as the upcoming The More the Merrier. Peter also appears in this movie as Charlie, one of Ella’s employees.
- Christine Garver and Stephanie Jackson wrote the script for Christmas Above the Clouds. Together they wrote Trivia at St. Nick’s. Stephanie also wrote the Hallmark movies Christmas in Tahoe and Sweet Pecan Summer.
- Erin Krakow stars as Ella Neezer. Erin and Tyler are reuniting four years after their roles in It Was Always You, a reunion the fans have been pining for ever since.
- Tyler Hynes plays Jake Phelps. Tyler will reprise his role as Taylor in Three Wisest Men later this month. He’s also filmed another movie for Hallmark All the Familiar Places co-starring Stacey Farber. No air date for that movie has been announced.
- Matthew Clarke voices the pilot and also plays the Ghost of Christmas Present. Matthew was last seen on Hallmark in An Unexpected Valentine and previously Field Day. He has also recently appeared in the TV series Family Law and Paranormal Solutions, Inc.
- Faith Wright plays the Ghost of Christmas Past. Her resume reads like six degrees of separation having appeared in Blind Date Book Club with Erin Krakow, Three Wise Men and a Baby with Tyler Hynes and The Babysitters Club with Peter Benson.
- Garfield Wilson plays the air marshal Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Among his 86 acting credits includes the movie Final Destination: Bloodlines and the series Virgin River.
- Emily Tennant plays Bobbi Crachit. Emily was in The Wish Swap earlier this year and in 2023’s Holiday Hotline.
