Interesting times for OD and KUL!

Japan Airlines NW23 International Preliminary Changes Tokyo Narita - Kuala Lumpur eff 01DEC23 - B767-300ER replaces B787-8 1 daily

Well said and I don't think they have a plan while they mess up further. No directions and switching off the air-conditioning at the Anjung Tinjau has also helped them gain more $$$ !!! This is why SGN and CGK and SIN will continue to lead the aviation growth in Southeast Asia while KUL lags behind, sadly!!

Lol !!! Not the first time, I was once in the train and it stopped midway just upon reaching the Satellite building. A technician had to walk over and open the door to enter the train and then manually and slowly moved the train to the terminal. This was at the end of 2019. Why can't they just repair the tracks and trains and completely use the buses to ferry passengers? I wonder what excuse they have for such an incompetent reason !

Good move but noise pollution to the surrounding housing areas, I think they may have restricted and limited slots as well as aircraft type for flights operating from SZB or else it will see the lower numbers at KUL

LGK may not be feasible for some tourist now that there are restrictions on the island state ☹️

🤐

Oh and don't forget that QF at one point wanted to start an offshoot here at KUL in 2011 and yet they ignore Malaysia altogether despite MH having multiple flights into Australian ports daily! 😉

The worlds longest waiting period for an aerotrain to be repaired, fixed and replaced if need be and yet MAHB is showing annual profits without spending! Oh what a wait!!! 🤐

Turkish Airlines plans PEN https://simpleflying.com/turkish-airlines-28-target-cities/ In Asia-Pacific, Turkish Airlines seeks to add Atyrau (Kazakstan), Aktobe (Kazakstan), Penang (Malaysia), Phnom Penh (Cambodia), Sialkot (Pakistan), and Sydney (often mentioned).

If they did indeed give an aircraft model as a gift, then shame on MH for giving us a MH logo cookie and a post it note during their inaugural to DOH 😅

Oh well, the good thing is that Malaysia or KUL is important enough for Airbus to focus on 😃

Interesting for Malaysian carriers to operate narrow-body aircraft on a 8+ hours flight
