I would go with "CHEESE"!!

If you so much as bring this subject up in an airport, you will be pulled aside for a naked rectal exam before being handed over to the FBI.

I honestly think the threat of hijacking has been reduced to almost nil thanks to the heroes of flight 93. But, if there were an attempted hijacking, I am of the opinion that almost every able-bodied person between the ages of 15 and 70 would rise to the occasion and counterattack. Priority one would be to block entry to the cockpit.

Knowing looks around the cabin will happen quickly if there's an attempted hijacking. "Protector" personality types aren't that hard to spot, you'll find them when you need them.

I've been waiting for someone to raise the point that the passengers on Flight 93 did some VERY unacceptable things. They failed to obey the instructions of the flight crew (the fact that their throats had been slit by then was irrelevent), they shamelessly disobeyed FAA and airline policy by using cellphones in flight, and even (ulp) "took the law into their own hands." Didn't they realize that we all have an obligation to shut up, do what we're told, and leave matters in the hands of legally-recognized professionals? ;)
