I added 'flight for political asylum' as a reason, because several of these instances involved aircraft hyjacking. BruceHallman 19:46, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Returning via Canada
This article lists several hijackers as returning via Canada on November 1, 1969. Presumably this was as a result of Cuban policy or a US/Cuba agreement. Can anyone provide any details? Fanx (talk) 19:06, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Rationales?
These stories don't make sense. There are no clues to the motives of the hijackers. I checked into the story of Meeks, 1970. It is very informative. It adds mental illness to the motives.
I think a good way of explaing the different motives of the hijackings would be expanding on a few more of them. I am expanding Meeks now, but I think a few more of these stories could need expanding, to get a better overview picture.
One big question that I dont understand: all these hijacking to Cuba, why dont these guys just buy a ticket to get to Cuba? The answer may be obvious, but only to someone who knows it, right?--gnirre (talk) 19:36, 2 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delta 821
Delta flight 821, a DC-8 from Dallas to San Diego, hijacked to Cuba 26 March, 1969 is missing from the list.

George Lopez??? Wtf?
I think that George Lopez (Celeb) did not hyjack a DC-8.
