You would think the airline pilot and other flight crew would call for help. They're pretty sure they crashed in a remote-ish area of the continental USA. The next would be to get everyone out of the plane. There's a lot of flammable jet fuel in there, and it could start burning. Opening the emergency exit would send out an emergency beacon, and they could stick together as a small group a few hundred yards from the downed plane.

Once they are out of the plane, anybody with the cell phone would probably have a signal. They definitely would know their exact location in moments via Google Maps. Realistically, they probably are only a few hours hike from some point of civilization like a small town or a major road.
