Australia has estimated
the next phase of the search will cost $60 million, with the breakdown
of exactly who's going to pay for what yet to be announced.
While 26 countries have
participated in the hunt for the missing plane, Malaysia, China and
Australia have held high-level talks about the future of the search.
Malaysia is where the
plane is from, most of the people on the flight were Chinese, and
Australia had six passengers on board and is closest to the remote part
of the Indian Ocean where searchers have focused their hunt.
The United States has
contributed a range of assets to the search so far, including the
Bluefin-21, which costs an estimated $40,000 a day to operate.
