Flight 93 is a 2006 made-for-TV film chronicling the events aboard United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001. It premiered January 30, 2006 on the A&E Network and was re-broadcast several times throughout 2006.

The film focused heavily on eight passengers, namely Todd Beamer, Mark Bingham, Tom Burnett, Jeremy Glick, Lauren Grandcolas, Donald Greene, Nicole Miller, and Honor Elizabeth Wainio. It features small appearances from many other passengers, namely Donald Peterson and his wife, Jean, and also from flight attendant Sandra Bradshaw.

The film was rated PG-13 for some violence and emotional depiction of the hijack situation.

Bloopers

  • Two single seated F-16 fighters were scrambled and a close-up of one of the pilots showed a window frame (01h 09m 30sec) from the frameless, bubble canopy of the F-16.
  • When the aircraft portraying United 93 is seen on the tarmac in New Jersey, a WestJet 737-700 can be seen in the background, and later taxiing behind "United 93" for takeoff. WestJet, a Canadian airline, did not add service to the United States until 2004, and does not serve New Jersey, therefore that aircraft should not have been there.
