United 93: Nicole Carol Miller Photograph & Misinformation

By Mark Conlon

A photo of United 93 passenger Nicole Carol Miller at Newark Airport has been circulating the internet, which is thought to show Nicole about to board her flight, United 93 on 9/11. After extensive research into the original "uncropped" photograph which I obtained, I can now confirm that the photograph was most likely taken a couple days before 9/11. If look closely you can see the AA logo on the boarding sign. The photo appears to be taken as Nicole was boarding an American Airlines flight, not a United flight.

Nicole was on vacation in NYC and NJ. Nicole was originally due to fly back to San Jose, California on the 10th September, according to her father, however because of a thunderstorm on the evening of 10th September, it forced Nicole to be rescheduled onto United 'Flight 93' the next morning, 11th September 2001.

Below, I can share an exclusive uncropped version of the photograph of Nicole, which to my knowledge is a very rare version of the photograph.

I have also obtained a short piece of video footage of Nicole at a family wedding. I hope this clears up the misinformation which has been circulating the internet about this photograph. 

Thanks for reading, until my next blog post.
