Should I worry flying around the south china sea on July 12?
Hey guys,
I am scheduled to fly from HK to SIN on July 12th. It just happens to be the same day they are scheduled to announce the south china sea ruling. Should I be worried about my flight flying through that region of the world?

+1. Let's assume the ruling goes against China. First it will make strong statements of protest. Next it might move some more military equipment in the general direction, or perhaps declare a new ADIZ. The last time they did that the US protested, but civil aviation just started complying. They didn't start shooting missiles at planes.
