Geeta Sethi, Jasmine Kohli, and Divya Rana are flight attendants with Kohinoor Airlines, a company on the verge of bankruptcy. The staff have not been paid their salaries in months, and the three friends, like all the other employees, keep hoping that things will change. Geeta's husband Arun runs a struggling food business from home. Geeta has to financially support her unemployed brother and his wife, as well. Jasmine was raised by her maternal grandfather (Nanu) after her parents divorced. She does not believe in relationships, is fond of expensive things, and flaunts a fake and flashy lifestyle on social media. Divya is trained to be a pilot but is forced to take up the job of a flight attendant due to a lack of openings and keeps this hidden from her family. She struggles to repay her education loan instalments.
The death of senior flight attendant Rajvanshi, while on duty, leads Geeta, Jasmine and Divya towards a clandestine operation to smuggle gold out of India to Al Burj (a fictitious country). Mr. Mittal, the HR Head of Kohinoor Airlines, is the kingpin of the operation. The three of them become part of the gold smuggling operation and their financial situation soon improves: Geeta funds Arun’s food business and her brother and his wife. Jasmine gets back Nanu’s gold ring from the pawn shop and buys a BMW for herself. Divya repays her education loan. The other employees of the airline are still trying to make ends meet. Someone tells the customs officials that the three flight attendants are smuggling gold; and even though the three of them can hide their stash, the detention that follows makes them feel humiliated and rethink their choice.

Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express praised the lead actresses, writing, "Tabu, so comfortable in her older woman avatar as the senior-most of the crew, and Khan, treading the thin line between greed and need with ease, are a riot; Sanon, in their company, is boosted and manages to hold her own." Gupta gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 and described it as an "easy-breezy" comedy that washes away the stench of recent Bollywood duds.

Zinia Bandyopadhyay of India Today gave the film 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "In times when political dramas are trying to make a statement abound, Crew is a welcome change. It’s light, easy-breezy and stays true to being a masala entertainer." The critic based at Bollywood Hungama awarded the film 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Crew is a fun entertainer and rests on the fine performances of Tabu, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Kriti Sanon."

Nandini Ramnath of Scroll gave the film a positive review, calling it funny, sexy, and honest—all without being overly mushy or judgemental.
