MH370 search date set

The search for Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 will resume yet again almost 12 years after its disappearance on March 8, 2014, during a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

The Malaysian government confirmed a 55-day seabed search of "target areas" will restart on December 30th 2025.

US robotics company Ocean Infinity will lead the search in areas deemed to have the "highest probability of locating the aircraft", Malaysia's Ministry of Transport confirmed in a statement.

Ocean Infinity previously conducted an unsuccessful search in 2018 but has since enhanced its technological capabilities. This time, Ocean Infinity has deployed its drone mothership, Armada 78 06, along with a fleet of advanced autonomous underwater vehicles for six-week search. These cutting-edge drones represent a significant improvement over those used in previous efforts, capable of diving beyond 6,000 meters and remaining submerged for up to 100 hours.

Ocean Infinity and Malaysia's government reached a "no find, no fee" agreement in March this year to resume the search for the missing flight.

The company will be paid A$110 million only if wreckage is discovered.

The resumption of the search has provided hope to the families of those on board, who have endured years of uncertainty. Grace Nathan, whose mother was a passenger on MH370, expressed relief and optimism about the renewed efforts, stating that finding the plane would bring much-needed closure.

Despite previous extensive search efforts covering vast areas without success, the combination of advanced technology and refined search data in this mission offers a renewed sense of hope in solving one of aviation's greatest mysteries.
