qantas and ianna decided not to fly over ukraine, there were many airlines that were still flying over ukraine, malaysia being one of them. should the airline be criticized? the airline flies a flight plane. if the air route is closed, it's rejected. if it's open, then they're allowed to fly. that's what happens here. looking over the last 48 hours before the flight, there were many long haul flights from singapore, from bangkok, from malaysia that were all going off this route and around this area. the question that really needs to be asked is to the authorities. why, when they knew that the capable of the separatists to bring planes down has had in recent days, why they didn't realize having reached that level of capability they didn't close ukrainian air space. to put it bluntly, it was put to me by one chief exec of an airline. to blame the airline for flying the route is a bit like blaming the car for being on the road when the road is open. the question you need to ask is why was the road open? >> the search for answers into the investigation continues. alex is an avenuation cons

but in a statement qantas said it wouldn't. >> there is no information to suggest there is risk to air flight flying over iraq. >> reporter: that has angered some, including those who represent qantas workers. >> at the moment you don't know you're traveling over a war zone. the companies don't tell you because it's cheaper to fly over the war zones rather than by pass it. >> reporter: would passengers pay more to avoid flying over troubled spots. >> i would spend more money rather than flying over a war zone. >> i definitely would pay more. definitely, to not take me over a war zone, yes. >> yes, i would spend more money. >> reporter: in canada the international aviatio aviation discussed the airline crash. they didn't announce any immediate change at their advice. >> what we do need are authoritative, accurate, and consistent information and decisions from the authorities. we are only as good as the information with which we are provided. >> reporter: the meeting produced no blanket bans from flying over war zones. >> reporter: over there, the plane has taken off for dubai and it wil

and qantas says the flights travel well above the safe altitude.he airline industry is meeting in canada to discuss plying over war -- flying over war zones. the disaster forced the aviation industry to review the air routes. we have more from montreal. >> the tragedy of mh17 focused attention on war zones and the skies above them. when shot, the malaysia airlines boeing 777 was in touch with air traffic chrome above a no-fly zone, that should have protected it. why it didn't work, and why it wasn't done is why they are gathering in montreal. >> this meeting will formalise what everyone knows - don't fly across war zones where people are likely to shoot at you. >> it's begun. flight paths are almost entirely clear of commercial air traffic. these show how many airlines are avoiding iraq, syria and others places. airlines moved to limit risk, even if it lengthens routes and expends fuel. >> crashes are rare. that's why an incident like this, the downing of a jet by military weaponry is causing concern. >> reporter: this was a least-known agency, iss

there's a water leak on a qantas plane. on board was american actress from yvette nicole brown. >> it's so good to know you all are okay. we saw your tweets, river running through the aisle. tell us what happened. >> first of all for having me on. we were just maybe an hour into the flight and all of a sudden it looked like a trickle at first. i thought someone had spilled a soda or pop or something, it got pigger and it literally was like a river running down the aisles of the plane. it was the scariest thing i've ever seen. >> a leak in an airplane with water flooding and stuff is not something you normally think as a problem during flight. how did you handle it? >> it seems like a water to me. it's water and electricity. i kept thinking we're over in the pacific and i'm in something that's full of electricity and there's water the other thing it was a double decker plane, i was wondering where the water was going, it flowed by us, there's people below us. sure enough, it became like a down pour for them, so i want to say

>> qantas says, look, we sprung a leak. >> from where?ering, i've never heard of this before, you'd be right. it is very, very rare. we also talked to the aviation experts about where the heck all this water might have come from. remember, this is a 14-hour flight. it was supposed to be flying from los angeles to melbourne. and they carry literally hundreds of gallons of water on this flight because of the toilets, because of washing hands, using the restroom. they have to keep enough water on the flight for that. that is likely where some of this water came from when this leak happened. i beyowant to hear from someone would was on the flight. imagine, water comes rushing in and you're at 35,000 feet in the air. >> it's water and electricity, i kept thinking about, we're over the pacific, and i'm in something that's full of electricity and there's water it the other thing is, there's a double decker plane, so i was wondering where the water was going because it flowed by us bau i'm thibut i'm thinking, th people behind us. it became a dow

many airlines in the world chose not to fly that route because of safety concerns, including qantas. will you take any responsibility for putting passengers lives at risk and for the death that is occurred? >> i mentioned, it was an approved route. some others didn't take it because they had another destination. understand, malaysia, amsterdam, malaysia, london. they have taking the route many, many times. since it's an approved route, it is safe and that's the reason why we have used these routes. >> hi. from the guardian newspaper from the uk. can you confirm there wasn't a may day issued from the plane and if true, what does it mean about how the plane may have been shot down? from the cockpit first, which would indicate there was no warning? thank you. >> i don't have any information about this. >> yes. >> we done have any discussion from the cockpit. >> hold on, hold on, hold on. >> if you insist it's a safe route, you have been flying all these years, why is malaysia airlines saying they will take an alternate route. would you have taken it before? >> no. after this incident --

the position at qantas does have to be at every major carrier.lines can be more safe and secure if they choose to. we litigated that in the cases of september 11th, 2001. the court said the regulations are the minimum. airlines can choose to do more but they have to do the minimum. >> les, what do you make of that? do pilots have any sense? miles o'brien was on the other day saying nothing in the world would have made him fly over this space. as a pilot, you're busy. do you think about that? >> we have a collaborative process, myself as the captain of the plane and the dispatcher. we get it in note iss to airman. so this information whether it be intelligence information about air space, information about weather, it's all part of that process. if there's something that we see that says, hey, i don't like this, we make a phone call. most of the time we get this electronically. >> has it ever crossed your mind? >> in my op-ed piece that i just put in, it was -- i used the word "inconceivable." to me the only threat that possibly would have been ou

we know that about qantas, and two other airlines. we know the question will be central to any legal matters that will flow from the situation. >> and i have to ask you one last question, because in your experience if a crash site is not accessed quickly, i mean, in this case we have -- we know rebels say they recovered one of the black boxes. we have journalists, we have just ordinary residents in eastern ukraine in and around this crash site area, which is very wide. so how thorough and definitive can an investigation be if the evidence hastampered with and people have gone through sensitive areas? >> i have to say it is going to be very difficult here. i mean, there is the hope that neutral investigators, if you wi will, will be able to access the site and find different parts of the aircraft. but you're absolutely right, we're looking at the situation in terms of what is tainted, who has access of the site, who is in charge of the site. the non-tracking evidence at the site, in other words there is not yet a central logging system

reuters reports, so did qantas, air berlin, asiana airlines, korean airline and china airlines. carriers like malaysia airlines flew directly over the war zone. >> you can't simply take every air space that might have a problem and say, we're not going to fly there, because as i say, the global scope of that would be enormous. >> reporter: late this week the dangers of the air space now abundantly clear. those aviation authorities took action. the aviation arms of the u.n. and europe recommending that airlines avoid the air space. and the u.s. and ukraine prohibiting flights there. but for flight 17, it's too late. renee marsh, cnn, washington. >>> do stay with me. our special coverage of malaysia flight 17 continues after a quick break. stay with us on cnn.
