In 2001 fewer than ten thousand people lived there. Its airport had four runways built for a different era, when piston airliners needed to stop for fuel before crossing the Atlantic and Gander was the last piece of North America they saw.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By the middle of the morning of 11 September 2001, thirty-eight wide-body airliners were parked on those runways, wingtip to wingtip, and the population of the town had gone up by more than half.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twenty-five years on, the aviation story of that day is usually told as four hijacked aircraft. There was a fifth story running at the same time, and it involved about five hundred aeroplanes that had done nothing wrong and suddenly had nowhere to go.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f5f5f5;padding:20px 24px;margin:26px 0\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 12px;font-weight:700;font-size:17px;color:#0d1117\">Quick Facts<\/p><table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:15px;line-height:1.6\"><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Operation<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Operation Yellow Ribbon, run by Transport Canada<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">11 September 2001<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Trigger<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">FAA National Operations Manager Ben Sliney ordered all US airspace closed at 09:45 Eastern, on his first day in the job<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Aircraft diverted to Canada<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Between 224 and 239 depending on the source; Nav Canada records 238 across 17 airports<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Passengers<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Transport Canada put the figure above 33,000; Prime Minister Jean Chr&eacute;tien cited 30,000 to 45,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Gander<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">38 aircraft, around 6,600 passengers and crew, in a town of fewer than 10,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Most aircraft<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Halifax, 47 flights<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Most passengers<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Vancouver, 34 flights and about 8,500 people<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>First airport to receive diversions<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">CFB Goose Bay, seven aircraft<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 12px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Canadian airspace<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#333\">Closed to departures except police, military and humanitarian flights, for the first time ever<\/td><\/tr><\/table><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">The decision that sent them north<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ben Sliney had been the FAA's National Operations Manager for about two hours when he ordered every aircraft in United States airspace to land. It was the first invocation of SCATANA-style national grounding in the agency's history, and it created an immediate and enormous problem that nobody in the building had time to think about: roughly five hundred aircraft were already over the ocean, heading for a country that had just closed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transport Canada had activated its situation centre in Ottawa at 09:21 Eastern, eighteen minutes after the second aircraft hit the World Trade Center. Transport Minister David Collenette ordered Canadian airports closed to departures except for police, military and humanitarian flights, and opened to inbound US-bound international traffic. It was the first unplanned closure of Canadian airspace in history.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/gander-international-airport-satellite-view-runways.jpg\" alt=\"A satellite view of Gander International Airport in Newfoundland showing its long runways\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Gander from above. The runways were built for propeller airliners that could not cross the Atlantic without stopping, which is exactly why they could absorb 38 wide-bodies in a morning. Image: Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rule Nav Canada applied was brutally simple and entirely aeronautical: any transoceanic flight that had passed its point of no return was to land at the nearest suitable Canadian airport. Aircraft began entering Canadian airspace at one to two per minute.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Transport Canada was also told to keep them away from Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa. Nobody knew yet how many hijacked aircraft there were, and the calculation was that if something aboard one of these aeroplanes was going to go wrong, it should go wrong somewhere with very few people underneath. Which is how a great many of them ended up in Newfoundland.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8GXmplRrwgA\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Most of the passengers had no idea<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The detail that survives from every account is that the people on board were not told. Crews were instructed not to explain, because a cabin full of frightened passengers at 37,000 feet on a day when aircraft were being used as weapons was a risk in itself. Some of the flight crews did not know very much either.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;When we were in the air, we really didn&rsquo;t know what was going on.

Only on the ground did he tell them there had been a terrorist attack.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then they sat. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police had to sweep every aircraft before anybody could get off, and there were dozens of aircraft at some airports, lined up along closed runways. At Gander, some passengers waited most of a day on board before disembarking.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/gander-international-airport-runway-newfoundland.jpg\" alt=\"A runway at Gander International Airport in Newfoundland\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Gander&rsquo;s runways.

NORAD scrambled Canadian and American fighters to intercept and escort civilian airliners on at least two occasions that day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Korean Air Flight 85, bound for New York with a stop at Anchorage, was believed to have been hijacked. Buildings were evacuated in Anchorage and in Whitehorse, Yukon, where the aircraft was directed. When it landed, witnesses reported that the RCMP ordered the crew off at gunpoint. The cause turned out to be a malfunctioning transponder and a translation error. A year later Prime Minister Jean Chr&eacute;tien revealed he had authorised the fighters to shoot the airliner down if the pilots judged that it carried terrorists.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Separately, two US Air Force F-15s escorted an Air China Boeing 747 flying from Beijing to San Francisco onto the north runway at Vancouver. Airport officials said afterwards that this too was a communications problem.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ROcw2Dd4EXw\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">What a town of ten thousand did next<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gander took roughly 6,600 people who had not planned to be there, could not leave, and in many cases had no luggage, no money and no idea when they would go home. There were not enough hotel rooms in the province, let alone the town.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So the schools and the church halls and the Legion and the community centres opened, and people drove out to the airport with food and blankets, and the pharmacists filled prescriptions written in other countries, and the bus drivers, who were on strike at the time, stopped striking and drove. This went on for the better part of four days, until American airspace reopened and the aircraft could go.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #1565c0;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;We owe our Canadian neighbours a debt of gratitude for helping us as we redirected flights and their passengers to airports in Canada.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Norman Mineta<\/strong> &mdash; United States Secretary of Transportation, at a White House briefing<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A year later, about 2,500 people gathered at Gander International Airport for Canada's memorial service. Chr&eacute;tien told them that 11 September would live long in memory as a day of terror and grief, but that thanks to the acts of kindness done for stranded visitors in Gander and across Canada it would also live in memory as a day of comfort and of healing. He finished by telling the town it had done itself, and Canada, proud.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/come-from-away-musical-toronto.jpg\" alt=\"A performance of the musical Come From Away in Toronto\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Gander&rsquo;s four days became <em>Come From Away<\/em>, which ran on Broadway from 2017 to 2022 and won a Tony for best direction of a musical.

Transport Canada recorded more than 33,000 passengers on 224 flights. Nav Canada counted 239 flights, and its airport-by-airport table adds to 238. Chr&eacute;tien spoke of 225 to 250 flights and 30,000 to 45,000 people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They were counting on a day when nobody had time to count. Some aircraft were logged twice as they were re-routed between airports, some cargo and business flights were included by one agency and not another, and the passenger figures depend on whether crews are in the total. The honest answer is somewhere between 224 and 239 aircraft and somewhere north of 33,000 people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It remains the largest emergency diversion of civil aircraft ever carried out. It was executed in a few hours by people improvising, and not one of the diverted aircraft turned out to be a threat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<style>.mfq{margin:34px 0 8px}.mfq h2{font:26px\/1.3 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117;padding-top:22px;margin:0 0 6px}.mfq .qa details{border-top:1px solid #5C91FF;margin:0;padding:0}.mfq .qa details:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e2e7ee}.mfq .qa summary{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;padding:22px 26px;font:18px\/1.7 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117}.mfq .qa summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mfq .qa summary::after{content:\"+\";font:24px Helvetica,sans-serif;color:#3568e0;flex:0 0 auto}.mfq .qa details[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mfq .qa details:hover summary{color:#3568e0}.mfq .qa .a{font:16px\/1.7 \"Gilroy regular\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#454e5e;padding:0 26px 24px}.mfq .qa .a a{color:#3568e0}@media(max-width:680px){.mfq .qa summary{padding:18px 14px;font-size:17px}.mfq .qa .a{padding:0 14px 20px}}<\/style>\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"mfq\"><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2><div class=\"qa\"><details open><summary>What was Operation Yellow Ribbon?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Operation Yellow Ribbon was the Canadian operation, run by Transport Canada, to receive civilian airliners diverted from United States airspace on 11 September 2001.
