Creeperian Airlines Flight 111 (IATA: AC111, ICAO: ACR111, callsign: Creeperiano 111) was a scheduled domestic passenger flight operated by Creeperian Airlines on a route from San Salvador's Saint Romero I International Airport in San Salvador to Chalatenango's Santiago Matadeltinianos International Airport in Castilliano. On 15 May 1995, the flight was hijacked by the Society of Deltinian Brothers (SOHEDEL) on the one-year anniversary of the execution of Deltinian rebel leader Humaid al-Saidi by the Creeperian government. During the hijacking, the Imperial Aviation Directorate (DAVIM), Creeperian Imperial Police (PIC), and National Intelligence Directorate (DINA) attempted to negotiate with the hijackers, but after negotiations broke down and an attempted revolt by passengers, the hijackers crashed the plane near Ningüino, Santa Ana killing all 312 people on board.
The hijacking was the deadliest aviation incident in Creeperian history for only 4 months and 4 days until Creeperian Airlines Flight 1347 was bombed by the Holy Army of al-Mutasim killing 315 people, and remains the deadliest hijacking in history.
