9/11 happened a couple weeks after my family and I got back to California from vacation at Disney World and it always felt like we dodged possibly being on a hijacked flight.

This is overly dramatic. It's not like you were on the same flight number, but the day before.

My uncle was sent from Canada to South Korea in 1983, to help with their CANDU nuclear reactors.

He flew on Korean airlines flight 007, a week before that same flight was shot down by the Soviet Union.
