Bottom line was that the crew's negligence put everyone's life in danger, but it then ended up being their miraculous skill that pulled them out of it.  No casualties outside of the plane itself.  Majority of the passengers praised the crew at their expert flying to save them, even after finding out that it was their negligence that put them in danger in the first place.

Some reporter got in trouble after that flight for tweeting that the the pilots were Ho Lee Fuk and Sum Ting Wong.
