Kar Yong Lim replied to Danial's topic in General Aviation
In the last 4 flights I took over the last 2 weekends from KUL to KCH return, I had one flight in the 734, one in 738 (the 30-row ML series) and two in the new MS series. The cabin certainly looks much superior in the MS series. In terms of seats, I noticed that the new MS seats are slightly higher (or it was just me feeling it?) and thereby makes the 30 inch pitch a bit more bearable compared to the seats on the ML series where they "sank" a bit, and my knees hit the seat in front of me, thereby made it very tight, coupled with the 29 inch pitch. If only, if only, the seats in the new 738 are 32 inch pitch.... dreaming la... -

Kar Yong Lim replied to Danial's topic in General Aviation
LOL! If the seat pitch is 36' for the 2 rows of emergency exit, plus Row 14 pitch of 32, that would give you 104' - that's LONGER than SQ's suite Point taken Never been in SQ A380 Suite before (nor likely ever will do) so unable to gauge what level of exaggeration was applied there -

thanks so much for the details. I wonder if we would ever know which series we will be on - i guess we have to depend on lady luck! -

May I ask how many configuration are there for the 737? I have taken at least 4 different ones in recent months - the old 737-400 (with horrible seat colours), the 737-800 (ex firefly), the 9M-MS* series with BSI, and yesterday, the 9M-ML* series. Seat comfort (not to mention the service and meals) is really inconsistent throughout these flights -
AirAsia Group/AirAsia X Group Service Changes

I think there should be sufficient pax. There are high number of daily flights between KBR and KUL/SZB. I met my fellow Kelantanese on every flights everywhere (the loghat kelantan is very distinct!) -
MAS Current Fleet Withdrawal Thread

Agree that the colour scheme was awful - at least MH got the colour scheme right for the new A330, IMHO -

Skytrax World Airline Awards 2013.
Kar Yong Lim replied to Sri Ramani K.'s topic in General Aviation
I concur that MH cabin service has deterioated so much. On my recent flight to Perth, a cabin crew was particularly rude and showed her displeasure by rolling her eyes when she was presented with a simple request by a family - to resit them together as they were seperated, as it was a full flight. She refused to do anything, and shook her head as she walked away, for everyone to see. Bad attitude. I should have taken a photo of her. -
I've taken EK a couple of times for the Tran-Tasman route, and both flights are barely half full. I remember having had the entire 4 middle seats for myself. I recall choosing EK because they were the cheapest. I had just returned from Perth and the flights on both legs were full! MH seems to be having healthy loads for the Australian routes.
