The info box has the numbers from the Times article, 115 passengers plus 7 crew. In the Flight section (referenced by New York Times) 110 survivors are mentioned, which corresponds to 114 passengers total. I'd go with ASN, which is mostly reliable (and gives the Herald Tribune as its source), saying there were 121 occupants, i.e. 114 passengers. Does anyone have access to the official accident report? If in doubt, I think we should take that as a reference. Proofreader (talk) 18:00, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
