Passengers in the Beijing International Airport remained calm after the crash of an Air China aircraft with 166 people on board Monday morning in the Republic of Korea (ROK). The death toll of the crash near Pusan rose to 124 on Tuesday with four people still missing. Passengers and crew were busy about their business in an orderly way. Air hostesses and other service people hurried to their destinations. Although there was no distinct expression, passengers still showed much concern after the crash. "I could hardly believe the terrible scene when I saw the plane crash and catch fire on TV. I would like to share the distress of the relatives of the victims and tell them that they are not alone in the situation," said Liu Zhenwu, a Shanghai businessman who flows nearly a hundred times every year. "I hope the cause of the accident will be found out soon and no such tragedy ever happen again," said Du Dasu, a Beijing citizen who was heading for Sichuan Province Tuesday afternoon. "The May Day vacation and the World Cup are approaching. The cultural and tourism exchanges will continue between China and ROK. Air China will rise from the current failure," Chen Yafei, an official with China Travel Service Group said confidently. A British teacher Wilson Kwok, flying to Seoul Tuesday, said, "I still fly with Air China, it indicates my trust in the flagship aviation group of China." "I hope plane manufacturers, air companies, insurance companies and weather departments can cooperate to provide better service to passengers," said Wang Jian, who was heading for the west part of United States.
