Overview

  • The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, led by Ocean Infinity, has been paused due to seasonal weather and prior commercial commitments.
  • Operations are expected to resume in late 2025, focusing on a 15,000 square kilometer area in the southern Indian Ocean.
  • Flight MH370 disappeared on March 8, 2014, with 239 people onboard, and remains one of aviation's greatest unsolved mysteries.
  • The search is being conducted under a 'no find, no fee' agreement, meaning the firm is only paid if the wreckage is located.
  • Families of the victims continue to demand answers and accountability, marking the 11th anniversary of the disappearance with protests and calls for closure.
