وخصصت شركة مصر للطيران صالة لذوي الركاب ولا يزال البحث جاريًا عن الطائرة من قبل السلطات المصرية وبمشاركة من فرق بحث من اليونان.

وقال رئيس الوزراء المصري شريف إسماعيل ”إن من السابق لأوانه استبعاد أي تفسير لما حدث بما في ذلك الإرهاب“.
وأضاف للصحفيين بمطار القاهرة أن فرق البحث المصرية واليونانية والتى تشمل الطائرات والسفن تواصل عملها فى البحث عن الطائرة فى المنطقة التى اختفت فيها من على أجهزة الرادار.
وحين سأله الصحفيون ما إذا كان يستبعد وجود عمل إرهابي وراء ما حدث؟ قال إسماعيل ”لا يمكن الجزم بأن الإرهاب هو سبب الكارثة أو نفيه ولابد من الانتظار لحين تجميع كل البيانات المتعلقة بالأمر وبدء لجان التحقيق المختصة فى عملها ولا يمكن استباق الأحداث فى هذا الأمر.“
