I would also add, "hustle" , to me, is more often used when you are telling other people to hurry. "I'm gonna miss my flight." "Well, you better hustle." or 'You better get a move on." It feels like you are teasing the other person. If I was talking about us, I'd say, "We better hurry, if we wanna make our flight." If you are going to say we should hustle... you should slang up the sentence. "We better hustle. We're not gonna make our flight."

i agree with Kornelia...it's make a flight if it's about making it on time whereas take a flight is simply getting on board the flight.

In this case I would say "make" is the better choice, since the sentence implies that the speaker is in a hurry and may not make it in time.
