In a Tweet sent early Monday morning to the 740 million followers of @harrypotter, Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of the private prep school Hogwarts, assured relatives of passengers and flight crew of Malaysia Flight 370 they were safely housed at his School For Wizards in Scotland.
“We were notified by our Sorting Hat that every single muggle aboard the flight were excellent prospective members for our school,” said Dumbledore, “So we sent our Recruiter, Hagrid, to collect them.”
Dumbledore continued “Although they are much older then we usually admit first year students, Hogwarts is a little thin in talent for the upcoming Tri-Wizard Tournament and we are hoping there is a ringer or two in the group.”
He added “Friends and family of our newest Wizarding students can see them at a Meet Up scheduled at the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade during the winter solstice.”
