A hijacked 767 will crash in just 97 minutes when its fuel runs out. Against the recommendation of Deputy Toyin (Jo Martin), NSA Director Hawkins (Alec Baldwin) prepares to have the plane shot down before it does catastrophic damage on the ground. The fate of the innocent passengers is now in the hands of Alex (Jonthan Rhys Meyers), an undercover Interpol agent onboard the plane who has been embedded in the terrorist group.
