Betty Ong
American flight attendant (1956–2001)
Betty Ong
Betty Ann Ong (Chinese: 鄧月薇; February 5, 1956 – September 11, 2001) was an American Airlines flight attendant who was on board American Airlines Flight 11, the first airplane hijacked during the September 11 attacks. She was the first person to alert authorities to the hijackings taking place that day. Shortly after the hijacking, Ong notified the American Airlines ground crew and remained on the radiophone for 23 minutes, relaying vital information that led the FAA to close U.S. airspace for the first time in the nation's history. The 9/11 Commission described Ong as a hero for her actions.
