The two etickets can't be verified. That's the problem, too many people these days like to manufacture stories for their own sick pleasure.

Post 721 with a link to the tickets.
Also is the red stamp part of the original ticket, or is it stamped on later...
It is in the exact same place on both 'tickets'. bogus?
Some ominous things here....
- Tickets numbers sequential
- Issued by same agency on 3/6 (per airliners.net)
- Exact same fare
- Different destinations but both via KUL-PEK-AMS-(final)

According to this report no explosion has been detected which would rule out at least the bomb theory if the source is correct

And for the guys who believe in a sinister hijacking plot flying below radar to Dr No island or another movie plot.... How do you escape from PSR detection between FL350 and near surface? I don't think there is a stealth version of 772 and getting from FL350 to a height where PSR does not detect you should take quite some time if you want to keep. Airframe intact.

If I turn off my phone and am international, it sounds like you are connecting to it when you dial the number so it still rings to the caller.

Some more news...
Malaysia Airlines investigation: Live Report
07:59 GMT - Another passport - Chinese state media is reporting that a Chinese person whose passport number is among those listed for passengers aboard the missing flight did not in fact board the plane.
According to the Xinhua news agency the person, a resident of Fujian province in eastern China, has no departure record and is still in Fujian.
Although the passport number is the same, the name listed by Malaysia Airlines for the passenger is, it says, adding the owner says he has never lost his passport.
07:47 GMT - Expanded search - Malaysian authorities have expanded their search for wreckage to the country's west coast, and asked for help from Indonesia. Searches so far had concentrated on waters to the country's east, in the South China Sea.

The article may be poorly worded, but if indeed the family made contact with their son (via his mobile) and Malaysian authorities are investigating the signals location its a breakthrough!

Probably the same reason there is (or was) a dial tone so the person dialling doesn't just get "nothing" until they become connected which would make them think that they have been disconnected whilst waiting for the international exchanges to actually find the phone & then make the connection.

Paddy, can you please fill us in on the 777 that was lost to a cockpit fire? I don't recall that happening.

On our 777s at least, you can't lock it. That is actually a good thought.
