Two survivors of South Korea’s deadliest plane crash in decades are recovering in Seoul after a Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 crashed at Muan International Airport on Sunday, killing 179 people.
The flight attendants, a man and a woman, sustained non-life-threatening injuries, with the man in intensive care for fractures.
The crash occurred after the plane, which had just taken off from Bangkok, encountered a bird strike during landing.
Investigators, including U.S. officials, are examining the cause, and South Korea's transport ministry has ordered a thorough inspection of all Boeing 737-800 aircraft in the country.
Jeju Air has canceled over 68,000 flights, offering refunds to passengers.
