    Wanna know the main reason hijackings stopped? United 93.

    Before 9/11 when most hijackers were basically seeking transportation to somewhere for asylum (essentially), they generally wanted the plane to make it there and survive.

    9/11 used the planes as weapons, and everyone learned that if you were hijacked, you needed to go all-out to take the plane back over so you didn’t aall die.

    There’s your deterrance. Little to do with the TSA and everything to do with what changed on that day.
