The flight was carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members.
The flight loses contact with air traffic controllers about an hour after taking off from Kuala Lumpur. The last-known position of the plane was 120 nautical miles off the east coast of the Malaysian town of Kota Bharu, Malaysia Airlines chief executive Ahmad Jauhari Yahya said. The aircraft was flying in good weather conditions and disappeared without warning or a distress signal.
