CanJet Flight 918
2009 attempted airliner hijacking
CanJet Flight 918 was a flight that was scheduled to take off from Sangster International Airport (MBJ), Montego Bay, Jamaica, on 19 April 2009, bound for Halifax Stanfield International Airport (YHZ), Halifax, Canada, but was instead seized before takeoff for hours by an armed, lone hijacker. This was likely the fourth hijacking on Jamaican soil, and the second time a Canadian airliner had been hijacked.
