They didn't say if passengers using the stolen passports had checked in with the airline for the flight though (Theives boarding in pax place). Looking on the map it doesn't look like there is a ton of water to fly over.
I would suspect that 8 out of 10 airliners that crash in cruise flight without a distress call had some type of explosive onboard.
