Passenger airliner
At the beginning of the film, Jack Ryan (who dislikes flying) gets in a flight to the United States. At the end of the film he flies back to England, finally able to sleep on a plane after being awake for several days. This is likely to be a mock-up film set rather than the interior of a real jet airliner.
