According to the latest Ocean Infinity search mission, which ended on January 23, it failed to find the plane's final location. So, what should you know about it?

No news on the plane as of yet

For your information, the Boeing 777-200ER with 227 passengers and 12 crew members on board lost contact with the control tower 12 years ago, giving rise to various theories about what really happened. The Ocean Infinity company launched a search mission on December 30 last year that was supposed to last 55 days in stages in the Southern Indian Ocean. It was ended early due to bad weather conditions.

The search was conducted based on a service agreement between the Malaysian Government and Ocean Infinity, signed on March 25, with two phases. The first phase was from March 25 to 28, 2025, and the second phase was from December 31, 2025, to January 23, 2026. In total, the search mission was conducted for 28 days, covering an area of 7571 square kilometres in the Southern Indian Ocean.

Ocean Infinity has been involved in two previous searches but has failed to find the plane. The contract signed is for 18 months with a search area of 15000 square kilometres. They will only receive USD70 million (~RM 277 million) if they successfully find the plane wreckage.
