  8. MAS Starts Code-Sharing With Myanmar Airways International (MAI) September 26, 2005 19:11 PM KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 26 (Bernama) -- Malaysia Airlines (MAS) and Myanmar Airways International (MAI), Monday signed a code-sharing agreement on air route between Kuala Lumpur and Yangon which would take effect Oct 30, 2005. Under the code-share, MAS will maintain its four-times weekly frequency while MAI will reroute its services to three-times weekly, thereby resulting in daily services between both capital cities. Speaking to reporters, MAS senior general manager Datuk Rashid Khan said the load factor for the KL-Yangon route averaged at 72 percent while growth in air traffic was 29 percent last year. The code-share, he said, would boost both capacity and traffic for the route. Meanwhile, the code-share was the 23rd for MAS and the third such code-share for MAI after Thailand and Qatar. With the exception of Cambodia and Laos, Rashid said MAS has established code share agreements with all Asean member countries. He said the KL-Yangon route saw a great growth trend in the last few years but the existing air agreement had limited its expansion. However, the code sharing would enable both airlines to combine resources and operate daily flights. He said the airline was also urging both governments to initiate talks on air services agreement. Explaining further, he said Asean's open skies policy would only be in place in 2008 and therefore, any short-term requirements in terms of capacity or frequency would require a framework air services agreement. "We can cater for traffic growth once we codeshare because the demand into Malaysia from Yangon is mainly for labour traffic movement while Myanmar is becoming a tourist appeal for short-haul travellers," he said. Meanwhile, MAS chairman Datuk Dr Munir Abdul Majid said both countries had been following the same flight path as Malaysia had started the Malayan Airways in 1947 while Myanmar had theirs in 1948. Despite the dips and ups in domestic happenings, he said Malaysia had always maintained relations with Myanmar and in 1994, MAI had leased two Boeing 737-400 from MAS. Also as part of the 5-year lease arrangement and to support MAI's international operations, Munir said MAS provided a group of seven pilots, four engineers and three mechanics. It was also understood that in this last four years, MAI cabin crew had used MAS Academy for their safety training. -- BERNAMA Source : BERNAMA.com
  9. Decision On MAS 737-400 Replacement Before Year End October 05, 2005 17:41 PM From Mohd Arshi Daud SEATTLE, Oct 5 (Bernama) -- A decision on the replacement of Malaysia Airline System Bhd's (MAS) existing Boeing 737 fleet, previously targeted for September, is now expected to be made before the end of the year. "Most recent indications are that there may be a decision later in 2005," Boeing Commercial Airplanes' manager of International & Sales Communications Bob Saling said Wednesday. Penerbangan Malaysia Bhd, the parent company of MAS, planned to replace the airline's 39 units of 11-year-old 737-400 with more efficient aircraft as a measure to counter rising fuel and maintenance costs. The single aisle aircraft being considered for the fleet renewal exercise are Boeing 737-800 and the Airbus 320. But recently, MAS chairman Datuk Munir Majid said the national carrier might review its aircraft purchase as part of a bigger restructuring plan aimed at generating RM1 billion profit after five years. "Discussions are ongoing as we work with PMB and MAS to identify the best matches to MAS' fleet replacement and growth plans," Saling told Bernama on the sidelines of Boeing's Asia Pacific Media Tour here. As for the number of new aircraft involved in the discussion, he said: "This is probably best addressed by MAS, but indications are that the requirement is for between 45 and 60 airplanes." Saling is keeping his fingers crossed for Boeing's chances of winning the contract as the 737 is known for its high efficiency, high utilisation, high reliability and lower operating cost compared with the A320. Boeing is believed to have submitted an attractive pricing to beat its rival, Airbus, which had two years ago won a deal to supply its super-jumbo A380 planes for US$1.62 billion in all. Source : Bernama.com It has been reported that the MAS 737-400 fleet replacement exercise would cost up to US$2.57 billion on catalogue prices.
