Earlier, Fernandes led AirAsia staff in bidding farewell to the last of the Boeing 737-300 aircraft in its fleet.The carrier has switched entirely to the Airbus 320, which was expected to help the airline save through fuel efficiency.
The Boeing aircraft on its final flight from Kota Kinabalu landed at the Low-Cost Carrier Terminal here at 9.55am.
As part of the ceremony, local strongman M. Muniandy pulled the aircraft for 45.72 cm with his hair.
Well, they do published this news in The Star today. Its kinda very sad to see the 737-300 retires.

KOTA KINABALU: The RM1.4bil makeover of the Kota Kinabalu International Airport is one step closer to completion – the new main terminal will become operational tomorrow.
Malaysia Airports senior general manager Datuk Azmi Murad said operations at the existing terminal would be transferred to the new RM720mil building at 12.01am.
He said the new Terminal 1 is capable of handling up to 3,200 passengers per hour during peak periods as it has 64 check-in counters for international and domestic flights as well as 17 aircraft parking bays.
Azmi noted that elements indigenous to Sabah had been built into the interior of the terminal with the design of column heads inspired by the wakid or traditional baskets used by the Kadazandusun and Murut communities.
“Ethnic patterns of the Rungus and Bajau communities have also been incorporated into the way the floor tiles were laid out,” he told a media briefing at the new terminal building yesterday.
He said the old terminal that had been used since the 1980s would be demolished and rebuilt by mid-2009. It will be integrated with the new building, doubling the floor space to more than 100,000 sq m and be used mainly for domestic arrivals and departures.
Azmi said 4.3 million passengers used the airport last year, making it one of the busiest after KL International Airport. In comparison, the number of passengers passing through the Kuching and Penang airports last year was about three million.
For this year, Malaysia Airports was expecting up to 4.6 million passengers would pass through Kota Kinabalu International Airport, which has the capacity of handling up to nine million passengers annually.
“Going by an average growth of between 5% and 8% in passenger volume annually, we expect the terminal to reach its capacity in about eight to 10 years,” Azmi said, adding that there was still room for expansion.
The airport's redevelopment also included the construction of a low-cost carrier terminal that opened last year and the extension of the runway to 3,780m and a full-length taxiway scheduled to be completed next year.

IPOH: Housewife P. Susila was stunned when she heard a loud bang and saw the object that crashed into her garden here yesterday, just metres from where she was standing – it was an aeroplane.
The two-seater Eagle 150B was largely intact and was upside down with its nose embedded in a patch of plants in Susila's nicely-maintained garden in Taman Chempaka. The wingtips had just missed the boundary wall and a pillar. A set of garden furniture just metres from the wreckage was untouched.
Relating the 1.30pm incident Susila, 49, said: “I was inside the house when I heard a loud noise. When I looked out of the door to check, I was stunned to see the plane in my garden, just metres from my doorstep.”
The two-seater Eagle 150B trainer aircraft crashed-landed in the garden of a double-storey link house in Taman Cempaka, Ipoh, Thursday. The trainer and trainee pilot survived the crash.
Soon after, several people were shouting at her to tell her to open the gate so that they could help the two pilots who were still in the cockpit, she added.
Trainer Mohamad Faizal Kamaruddin, 37, and his 23-year-old trainee Ahmad Tarmezee Ahmad Lotpi were in the airplane belonging to an aviation institute here.
It is believed that the pilot had lost control of the aircraft before it crash-landed into Susila’s compound.
Ipoh traffic chief Deputy Supt Mohd Rodzi Rajab said the two men, who were badly injured but in stable condition, had been admitted to the Hospital Raja Permaisuri Bainun.
Police said they were still investigating the incident and had yet to identify who was flying the airplane.
Crash-landing: The wreckage of the two-seater airplane lying in the garden of the house in Ipoh Thursday.
Chia Kwan Hong, who was having lunch nearby said he saw the plane hitting a tree first before it crash-landed.
Chia, a 25-year-old computer salesman, said he and his father Kook Kheong, 51, rushed to the crash site to see if they could help the survivors.
After 20 minutes, rescuers managed to free the two men from the wreck and rushed them to hospital.

Budget carrier AirAsia said Monday that surging fuel prices will force carriers worldwide to merge or face bankruptcy.
AirAsia's founder Tony Fernandes insisted he will continue with an ambitious expansion plan despite the industry turmoil which he said had sent 27 carriers out of business in the past four months.
"We are seeing a consolidation in the aviation industry. Some will merge while others will go bankrupt. A lot of people are not going to survive this (fuel hike) including Asian budget carriers," he told reporters.
Fernandes said AirAsia had been approached by other airlines about tie-ups and operating deals, but did not elaborate.
He insisted the carrier would stick to its plan to expand routes, increase flight frequency and accelerate the delivery of the remainder of its 175 new Airbus A320 aircraft.
"There are two ways to deal with the oil prices. You can put your head in the sand and kill yourself. But we believe we need to go out and market," he said.
"I'm not going to give up now because of high oil prices -- we have 6,000 staff."
Fernandes said AirAsia will mount additional flights to Hong Kong and Guangzhou and open new routes to Ujang Padang and Balik Papan in Indonesia.
"We are still bullish. Ticket sales have been very good in the last few months. A lot of Singaporeans are flying to Kuala Lumpur to use AirAsia. We do not see any slowdown. There is still a big untapped market potential," he said.
"There is no change in our growth plan," he said, adding the carrier would not simply increase ticket prices as a means to offset rising costs.
Fernandes said he was optimistic that oil prices would come down but said: "My job is to survive even if the oil price is 200 dollars a barrel."
Due to the economic slowdown and the introduction of new aircraft, as well as increased connectivity between regional destinations, the corporate sector has been starting to use the budget carrier.
"The corporate passenger segment grew 300 percent in the last three months," Fernandes said.
In May, AirAsia said its net profits defied escalating fuel prices to leap 86 percent in the first quarter.
AirAsia, launched in December 2001 with just two aircraft, has become the region's biggest low-cost carrier and been imitated by national carriers and other low-fare start-ups.

Oh my goodness.
Seat colours so ugly wan.Why can't MAS stick to the original colour instead?
Its so colourful and doesn't suit the interior of the plane at all. -
Wanted to watch this but eventually my brothers are watching Discovery Real Time about American Choppers.

Those sketches are beautiful. I like the new design of the Terminal 3. But, I do agree with you guys that the RM35 grand to refurbished all as stated in the sketches is way too impossible. It will much more and cost a bomb for them to redo again.

Guys,
For your info, DB means "Deutsche Bahn". Its a railway company from German. If its Razmyn other nickname for it, then we don't know what it mean stands for.

KUALA LUMPUR: Airbus is increasing the list prices of its planes by between US$2mil and US$4mil with effect from May 1 following the weak US dollar and compounded by the record high metal prices.The aircraft manufacturer said in a statement on Wednesday that including the 2.74% normal increase for 2007, it was increasing by US$2mil per single-aisle aircraft and US$4mil per wide-body long range and A380 Family aircraft.
“The price increase is mainly triggered by the weak US currency and the overall increase of world market's raw material prices – especially with regards to metal. It is the first time since 2003 that Airbus applies a price increase above escalation,” it said.
Airbus said the US dollar was at its lowest rate in 20 years. Over the last 12 months the Euro versus the US dollar exchange rate moved from 1.35 to almost 1.60, which translated into a devaluation of more than 15%.
It also said prices for metal-products (aluminium plates, stainless steel) have risen by at least 6.5%, and costs for industrial products in the euro-area increased by 5% last year.
Titanium, steel, aluminium, aluminium-lithium still account for at least 40% by weight in modern aircraft design. Airbus chief operating officer John Leahy said the increase was to keep pace with the world market price developments and secure profitable deals.
“Our state-of-the-art aircraft are setting the benchmark regarding eco-efficiency, delivering more value with less environmental impact, and providing more with less. This translates into real savings, since fuel expenses today can be up to 40% of an airline's operational cost," he said.
Until end-March, Airbus sold over 8,800 aircraft to more than 370 customers and operators and has delivered over 5,100 aircraft since it first entered service in 1974. Its backlog was above 3,700 aircraft, which meant it had secured up to six years of production.

Armed airport patrols launched after shootoutApr 11, 08 11:36am
The police have introduced armed patrols of the capital's main airport after a dramatic robbery that left five people injured in a hail of bullets, reports said today.
The robbers, who ambushed two money changers and their security guard outside the departure hall, escaped with more than a million dollars in cash in Wednesday's incident which highlighted Malaysia's rising crime rate.
Police chief Musa Hassan said armed personnel would patrol the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) departure and arrival halls around the clock.
"The move is to provide extra security at KLIA," he said according to the New Straits Times, adding that he had already proposed tighter security measures a month ago.
The daily said the shootout sent scores of people running for cover as more than 50 shots were fired, shattering large glass panels at the front of the building.
Separately, Transport Minister Ong Tee Keat said that three airport staff had been suspended over a security breach that saw a Bangladeshi man board a plane with a knife that he pulled out mid-flight, causing panic among passengers.
The pilot of the flight from Kuala Lumpur to Dhaka made an emergency landing Tuesday in Bangkok, though officials disagreed over whether the man had brandished the knife in a threatening manner or just wanted to peel an apple.
"We will be more attentive to security and safety measures," Ong said according to the New Straits Times.
