Malaysia extends long-missing flight MH370 search deal to 2027

The search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 will be extended for another year, Malaysia said on Monday, more than a decade after the plane disappeared.

The Boeing 777 carrying 239 people vanished from radar screens on March 8, 2014, while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in one of aviation’s greatest enduring mysteries.

Two-thirds of the passengers were Chinese, and the rest included Malaysians, Indonesians and Australians, as well as Indian, American, Dutch and French nationals.

Despite the largest search in aviation history, the plane has not been found.

Minister Anthony Loke said on Monday the extension will run until June 30, 2027, and maintains all terms and conditions of the existing agreement with exploration firm Ocean Infinity.
