370 (short story)

370, also known as The Great Flight 370 Mystery, is a 2021 illustrated short story written by Patagonian writer and author Lane Parsons and illustrated by YouTuber and artist Huw "Robby" Lyons. The story revolves around an alternate timeline where a fictionalized Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, having disappeared in 2014, is mysteriously transported to a parallel universe.

Lane Parsons refused to have the book published in Malaysia out of respect for the friends, family and relatives of the disappeared.

Synopsis
In 2014, Malayan Air Flight 370 disappears over the Indian Ocean, taking all 239 passengers and crew with it. While some speculate that it crashed at first, the truth behind the disappearance is unveiled. It turns out that the plane never actually crashed, it had been transported to an alternate future where water shortage, plastic pollution and environmental problems have ravaged the Earth. Those planes that went missing contained passengers who were chosen by the future people to repopulate the Earth as they have become mutations of the remnants of mankind.

The story revolves around the lives of the plane's passengers as they try to adapt to the environmental ramifications of that new timeline.
