The first episode debuted online last night, and you can watch it right here, which shows tension rising before this ill-fated flight between Atlanta and Los Angeles is about to take off. The series is set during the earliest parts of the zombie outbreak portrayed in both Fear the Walking Dead and The Walking Dead.

The first installment of the 16-part series will also air as promos during two commercial breaks within The Walking Dead Season 6 premiere episode on Sunday, October 11th. Subsequent episodes of Flight 462, each less than one minute long, will debut every Sunday, online and then on-air as promos during new episodes of The Walking Dead, for the duration of season 6. In addition, one of the characters featured in the web series, which is produced by Fear the Walking Dead showrunner and executive producer Dave Erickson and co-executive producer David Wiener, will join the cast of Fear the Walking Dead Season 2.

We're also introduced to a mysterious young woman, who doesn't say anything in the episode but her demeanor suggests that she knows much more about what's going on than the young man does.
