Malaysia Airlines said in a statement that flight MH370 had disappeared at 02:40 local time on Saturday (18:40 GMT on Friday) after leaving Kuala Lumpur.

It had been expected to land in Beijing at 06:30 (22:30 GMT).

Malaysia's transport minister said there was no information on wreckage.

Malaysia Airlines chief executive Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said the focus was on helping the families of those missing. He said that 80% of the families had been contacted.

The plane went off the radar south of Vietnam, according to a statement on the Vietnamese government website.

Its last known location was off the country's Ca Mau peninsula although the exact position was not clear, it said.

The Boeing B777-200 aircraft was carrying 227 passengers, including two children, and 12 crew members.

I don't know much about planes, why can't they trace the blackbox exactly?

The Federal Aviation Administration reports missing at least one major passenger plane every year. I'm still trying to figure out why this incident is getting so much coverage though. Hopeful, this means more extensive searching for the craft, crew, and passengers is in progression. The sooner this mystery is solved, the better.

The real question is, doesn't the media have better things to cover than a missing plane? Out of probably hundreds or thousands, why this one?

because everybody who was on it is presumed dead (about 239 people) and it also started the largest search and rescue effort in history

I did have some long reply to my ignorance of current events, but because I just came out of under a rock and I'm tired I'll just start with saying it's been a while since I've been in an area that I can actually see news. Hence, under a rock. Cut me some slack.

I don't know whether to be inspired or depressed given the overwhelming number of people who are dying without needing to get lost on a plane.

Current events are depressing.

So you don't actually know what's going on and yet you have sometime to say about it.
C'mon, don't be stupid.

so because other people are dying worldwide, that invalidates the loss of hundreds of people in a single incident of a plane vanishing? a plane that still hasn't been located?

I hope they at least find the plane; it'll be a bit easier now that they have a idea of where it could be, though.

ugh, so i work in a bookstore and some f*** has already published a book called Flight MH370 where he "explains" what really happened and he's publishing it as fact and it's all s*** and it really annoys the s*** out of me. customers have been saying how ridiculous it is and frankly i'm not really interested in convincing them otherwise because it absolutely is.
