Segundo notícias na mídia, a aeronave da AirAsia (Airbus A320-200), número de registo PK-AXC, voo QZ8501 - teria partido de Surabaya na Indonésia às 5h35min e estava programado para chegar às 8h30min em Cingapura. Entretanto, teria perdido a comunicação bem antes de completar sua rota.
O ministro dos Transportes da Indonésia, Hadi Mustofa, informa que o último contato foi quando o piloto pediu permissão para alterar a altura do voo devido ao mau tempo.
Em nota atualizada no Facebook, a empresa informou que das 162 pessoas a bordo, 155 eram passageiros (138 adultos, 16 crianças e um bebê), além de dois pilotos e cinco tripulantes. Entre eles estão:
- 156 da Indonésia,
- 3 sul-coreanos
- 1 francês,
- 1 de Cingapura,
- 1 da Malásia.
Queira Deus que não se repita a ocorrência do voo MH370, da Malaysia Airlines, e que os parentes das vítimas tenham seu sofrimento amenizado com brevidade.
