Search and locate operations have been suspended for tonight, Indonesian reports say. Three planes had been combing three areas where QZ8501 was suspected to have lost contact for about two hours with no progress, the person in charge of Indonesia's search team was quoted as saying.

The search operations were suspended at 6:30pm Singapore-time "because it was getting dark", AFP quotes transport ministry official Hadi Mustofa as saying. He says they will resume the search at 7am or earlier.

7:10PM: The fiance of 25-year-old Louise Sidharta, 27-year-old Alain, is on board QZ8501, along with five family members. The Indonesian couple had plans to get married in May.
