Rök ombord på Egyptair-planet innan kraschen

EgyptAir Flight 804 (MS804/MSR804) was a scheduled international passenger flight from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport to Cairo International Airport, operated by EgyptAir, which crashed into the Mediterranean Sea on 19 May 2016 at 02:33 Egypt Standard Time (UTC+2). No mayday call was received by air traffic control, although signals that smoke had been detected in one of the aircraft's lavatories and in the avionics bay were automatically transmitted by ACARS shortly before the aircraft disappeared from radar. The cause of the disaster is under investigation. There were 66 people on board: 56 passengers, 7 aircrew, and 3 security personnel. No survivors were found. Debris from the aircraft were found in the Mediterranean Sea approximately 290 km (180 mi) north of Alexandria. Nearly four weeks after the crash, several main sections of wreckage were identified on the seabed, and both flight recorders were recovered in a multinational search and recovery operation.
