    I just read a report that said the pilots asked for a "weird" route before losing contact.

    Stupid CNN wouldn't report it as a Malaysian airliner. I had google to see where Air Asia is headquartered. Hope this one turns out okay.

    AirAsia is budget airline privately owned by Malaysian. I flight with it very frequently. It is very reputable in southeast Asia despite being labeled a cheap airline.
