while on the topic of gps....my wife won a way way gps recently n software was by papago I swear on earth that i will never use this brand again its useless...even on a flat road....satelite signal lost....lucky its free

Does anyone know if AK or D7 treats this kind of delays all the same......anyone else experience this kind of treatment

Suprised to see AK drop from 23th to 14th placing in LCC capacity year on year....even Jetstar and Lion is ahead of AK.....

In simple english, what a load of bull s*#% ........I can assure this Dep Min is reading fr a written script.......

Alamak...jialat....all of them grinning like the cheshire cat

In my opinion, MH should b stripped of the 5star tagging...so the whole management n hopefully the staff of MH can take this as a wake up call to strive forward and improve rather than threathening to picket over the AK-MH deal......

Just did a dummy bookin PEN-SIN return. Outbound 31st Oct. Inbound 04th Nov MH Y Class: MYR 1220 MI Y Class: MYR 924 to MYR 1074 (depending on which flight you take) This is really crazy ........ for just a 1 hour hop....

Rescind MAS-AirAsia deal or we’ll picket, unions warn By G. Manimaran Bahasa Malaysia EditorOctober 01, 2011KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 1 — Upset that their grievances are being ignored, Malaysia’s airline workers have given their bosses two months to cancel the share swap deal or face protests in December. Eight aviation workers’ unions made the decision today, insisting Malaysia Airline System’s (MAS) deal with AirAsia has affected the jobs of some 20,000 employees in the national carrier. “We give Khazanah [Nasional] two months to cancel the deal and return to the original agreement. If not, we will go ahead with our picket, which we have decided will be in early December,” MAS employees’ union (Maseu) president Alias Aziz (picture) said today, referring to the federal government’s investment arm. Alias told The Malaysian Insider that all eight workers’ groups want MAS to buy back the shares that have been sold to AirAsia while returning those bought from the budget carrier. Besides Maseu, the other affected groups are the MAS Pilots’ Association; MAS Executive Staff Association; the Sabah Executive Union of MAS; the MAS Managers’ Association; the Airline Working Union of Sabah; the Airline Working Union of Sarawak; and the Sarawak Executive Staff Committee. Alias said the groups decided in a meeting today they will urge the International Transport Workers’ Federation (ITF) to boycott both airlines if the deal goes through allowing a new airline to emerge from their partnership. It has been rumoured that 80 per cent of MAS staff could be moved to the new Sapphire airline as a result of the MAS-AirAsia deal. MAS and AirAsia inked the deal on August 9, which allows the loss-making national carrier to swap a 20.5 per cent stake for 10 per cent in Asia’s top money-making budget flier. The swap enabled AirAsia bosses Fernandes and Datuk Seri Kamaruddin Meranun to sit on the MAS board and ostensibly help turn its fortunes around. The workers’ unions have accused the budget carrier’s ambitious boss of taking advantage of the loss-making national airline to fuel his personal ambitions, the latest being the acquisition of English Premier League club, Queens Park Rangers. The national carrier will sponsor QPR’s home jersey for the next two seasons, while AirAsia’s logo will be emblazoned on the team’s away and third kits. MAS had announced in August a net loss of RM527 million for the second quarter of 2011 due to higher fuel costs despite recording a better yield and a nine per cent growth in passenger revenue from the same period last year. This brings total losses in the first half of the year to RM769 million even as the airline said that the profit outlook for the second half of the year appears bleak. MAS had been doing well until the Asian financial crisis hit in 1998, which later led to its assets being sold off to resolve its balance sheets.

Don't go during winter unless u really like the sub-zero temp n freezing winds.....summer is good.....but that depends on your ticket

Agreed........however all of us hope one day we can eat back what we said about MH as I'm sure we all want MH to be back to their glory days but its still nowhere to be seen ....

SkyTeam welcomes China Airlines [/url]1 17 hours ago SkyTeam has welcomed China Airlines as its 15th member. The airline, also one of the world’s leading cargo carriers, becomes the first Taiwanese airline to join SkyTeam. From its hub in Taipei China Airlines operates a diverse passenger and cargo network throughout the wider Asia pacific region, North America and Europe, with a total of 224 daily departures to 80 destinations worldwide. The new member brings three new destinations to the SkyTeam network: Okinawa and Miyazaki, Japan; and Surabaya, Indonesia. “Joining SkyTeam is an integral part of our strategy for increased international growth and profitability,” said China Airlines’ chairman, Chia-Juch Chang. “This is a momentous occasion in our history and we look forward to a future of cooperation and collaboration with our SkyTeam partners, bringing greater benefits to our distinguished passengers.” China Airlines customers can now earn and redeem miles on all services operated by SkyTeam member airlines. Members of other SkyTeam airlines’ frequent flyer programs can also earn and redeem miles when flying on any China Airlines operated flight. China Airlines will also be included in all SkyTeam global deals, particularly benefiting corporate clients with business interests in Taiwan. =================================================================================================================================================== Wonder what will EVA do now ??

=================================== Skyscanner reveals two single flights saves money [/url]14 hours ago Purchasing a return flight to Asian destinations may not always be cheaper than buying two singles with the same airline, according to the latest research by flight comparison site Skyscanner. The research showed that on certain flights from London to Asia, massive savings were actually available for the exact same flights by simply booking two single journeys instead of the standard return fare. This insider tip is only applicable on scheduled carriers; budget carriers’ pricing focuses only on single fares, allowing customers to ‘mix and match’ single tickets to create their desired return fares rather than having set fares. The study found that passengers could save almost £350 per person by booking two singles to Hong Kong with Qantas, instead of the return fare with the same airline. BA customers could save a massive £430 by adopting the same procedure: Gareth Williams, Skyscanner CEO said: “Travellers are always looking ways to get the best deal on their flights and most would assume that a return flight would offer the cheapest option, however this study shows that we shouldn’t assume anything. Whilst in most instances this is likely to be true, there are definite examples where we have proved that this is not always the case and two tickets are better than one.”

I'll be damned......what kind of award is this for MH to win it....what r the judging criterias.......If MH wins for the Golden Lounge, I believe....but win "Asia Leading Airline" award.....find it hard to believe

Flights delay out of PEK is very normal...n domestic flights jumping queue is also quite normal....if u see the pix of planes I took under the PEK thread, it shows the number of Air China planes passing by my KA flight when waiting for our turn to take off. I agree that KA F/A are better than CX F/A in general.......but to me CX is still much better than MH as so far my experience with MH F/A have not been good or impressive at all

17 Sept 11 Taken while waiting for my KA 905 flight to HKG B-6075 A330-243 B-6593 A321-211 B-6073 A330-243 B-5477 B737-89L B-2065 B777-2J6 - this plane really needs a good scrub and new coat of paint B-5105 B737-97L B-5508 B737-86N Saw a runway shortly after taking off from PEK. Anyone knows what airport or air base this is ?
