The Last Transatlantic Hijacking
Thursday January 5th 10pm

The true story of the last successful hijacking of a transatlantic flight. HOSTAGE: DO OR DIE host Dominick Misino takes viewers on a psychological roller-coaster ride as he tells his own personal story of negotiating with a hijacker who has taken 100 people hostage aboard a flight from Frankfurt to New York. Pilots, passengers and families describe the horror of Lufthansa Flight 592 and negotiators reveal the techniques that bring the flight safely home.

For the first time, co-pilot Kay Juergens tells the story from the cockpit; passengers William Matthews and Jeff Ritchie describe it from the coach cabin; Megan Ritchie tells how she and her children handled the day-long ordeal watching the news from home; and Dominick Misino and his team of NYPD/FBI negotiators describe the action from the JFK control tower. A hijacking told from all points of view …. like it's never been told before.
