Told in real time, Hijack is a tense thriller that follows the journey of a hijacked plane as it makes its way to London over a seven-hour flight, as authorities on the ground scramble for answers. Sam Nelson is an accomplished negotiator in the business world who needs to step up and use all his guile to try and save the lives of the passengers — but his high-risk strategy could be his undoing.

RUFKM? What a BS ending. I don't want to give any spoilers so I'll just say the last 10 minutes ruined the other 7 hours!
that was a wild ride, I hope the team that made this goes on to make more content
This Show definitely has you on the edge of your Seat!!! How they cut you off at the moment you think you're going to see it, at just like that, the episode is Over! If this series continues the way it is, this could be right up there with "Bird Box" that was on Netflix. Apple TV+ Really out did themselves with this one!
