Even if they did these things, no redflags would have shown up. The hijackers did not break down the doors, which elimates the first point as helpful.

They used knives that might have been caught, but were generally not considered a threat.

divert planes around larger cities,

The diversion of planes around big cities only helps prevent accidents. Even if the planes were diverted, i doubt that would have stopped Al-Queda from flying them into the city. This just would have let someone know something is wrong about 5 minutes early. As there is no anti-aircraft sites in any major city, little could have been done.

The terrorists made no demands, and noone was made aware of the hijackings until after the second plane crashed. Dont see how any of you assertions would help.
