MH17 Crash: S'pore Airlines' FB posting gets flak


PETALING JAYA: A Singapore Airlines Facebook posting that the airline does not fly over Ukraine airspace has come under fire by many users who felt that it was in bad taste.

The claim is also being questioned with reports stating that Flight SQ351 was about 25km away from the ill-fated MH17. FB users felt that the SIA notice, which was uploaded early yesterday, was “aimed at taking advantage of a tragedy.”
