About this listen

 In 1986, over 350 passengers on board Pan Am Flight 73 were faced with a traveller’s worst nightmare… their plane was hijacked. At just 22 years old, head flight attendant, Neerja Bhanot, stepped up to lead the cabin crew- making decisions that would come to define one of the most heroic responses in aviation history. This episode explores the story of Neerja and the brave flight attendants who risked their lives to protect the lives of strangers in the face of terror.
