that must be exception than norm though as i travelled almost every month to BKK and never in my memory had i ever waited for 1 hour for my bag regardless of airline

and you wonder how busier airport like BKK could do it in lesser time than KUL even though the plane is parked at remote bay, and yes that is minus the snaking immigration que, still they are faster than KUL.

im interested to know the travelers experience on those long haul narrow body plane...

is this their SOP and where can we as the user who apparently pays the airport tax can confirm the existence of such SOP?

only in KUL that they have "caste" system wherein OD's baggage will be put on hold to give way to MH's later flight....i saw it happened before....

or if they have good business acumen, start mega sale to and from australia....

if they want to represent themselves as full service carrier and attract business travelers, they need to ensure their dispatch reliabilty is not affected by introduction of new routes.

just noticed that the A320 and the would be 787 have different batik motifs

true, but i had the worst flight ever on RJ A330 with very2 tight pitch and stranded in the middle seat, i would opt for better legroom and personal space in narrowbody vs tight space in wide body

very violent scene indeed, was there no other alternatives than resorting to violent? i guess we should all thank Trump for this manic behavior which is getting rampant in the US.

none of them said that and the fact is there's no notification which should be sent at least via sms and email anyway

do they really have a choice? but having said that, A321 is not that bad considering it has 3 lavs for Y pax, from my personal experience flying VN to NRT.

Passengers arrive at Sibu airport, unaware of flight cancellations https://sg.news.yahoo.com/passengers-arrive-sibu-airport-unaware-125928807.html and this is expected..maybe they lacked crisis management team.....

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=589VaWFN1Jk at 0:18 you can see the actual resting place of the plane

being sarcastic doesnt mean you have to be stupid..ok now YOU should turn on YOUR so called "sarcasm radar"...

quote "Turn on your sarcasm radar please.".......

ya, and pray your next flight wont be like this

anything wrong with stating the facts? hope we are not going to be complacent on safety issues. regardless glad that all onboard are safe. this incident reminds me of the one back in JHB in 2010 where yours truly was one of the pax and managed to capture some post incident video which you all can watch in the link below. and this incident happened during heavy rain and strong wind just right at the time the plane was few minutes to touch down, similar trait with the current one i believe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9CHX5fNLho&t=21s those in this SBW incident had it worst from the pics i could tell thus i do feel for them and understand if they go berserk on this incident, not many people had experienced true life and death situation.......

nice livery on Layang2 Aerospace, no need to appoint Landor Associates for that i guess

im talking about inflight service & comfort, except for the lack of IFE, for me their service is similar to MH the so called "5 star value carrier"..whatever that means....

i believe it's more akin to Silk Air for SQ, not LCC but main service to secondary routes and of course tone down frills....no IFE, snacks rather than full course meals etc....in any event, it's at par with MH mainline service..so im not complaining.....

and OD starts to take substantial chunk of that pie...they better have comprehensive business plan for this foreseeable and impending business risk

based on my dummy booking for the month of May, TG is reinstating its morning flight and introducing late evening flight to KUL with the flight to be operated by Thai Smile and ET is still flying KUL-BKK route in May?i thought they had discontinued this effective March.....

just wondering why the rush to start flight to destination without the right equipment? compare to A320, 737 cabin is definitely smaller and cramped, the only reason i survived DEL-KUL previously on MH 737 was because i was seated at the exit row and luckily didnt have any urge to use the toilet. VN flies their A321 to most destinations within 5 hours flight time with 3 toilets for Y pax which for me is acceptable to provide comfort.

sadly AK is charging premium on this route being the sole player....unfortunate for OD not being able to capture part of the business
