Tijdens een vlucht op weg naar een staatsgevangenis, gijzelt de veroordeelde moordenaar Peter Cronin met behulp van twee vakkundige medeplichtigen, sexy Shayna Loring en voormalig IRA-terrorist Andrew Leary, de inzittenden van het vliegtuig. Zijn eisen zijn duidelijk: 20 miljoen dollar en een ander vliegtuig. Als zijn eisen niet worden ingewilligd, zal Cronin alle passagiers doden door het laten ontploffen van een bom, die verstopt is in een laptop.
Nee, helaas is Hijacked: Flight 285 nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
