    Malaysia Airlines’ fourth A380 (MSN089) completed final assembly and was moved to the flightline. She took just ten weeks to complete assembly, the fastest time yet for a Malaysia Airlines frame.

    She has been assigned test registration F-WWAN.

     

    Delivery to the airline is scheduled for Q4 2012.

    BUDGET airline AirAsia X's first plane landed in Sydney today, sparking a new era in cheap travel to Asia.

    The airline will operate daily flights to Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia, with new one-way sale fares from $199 for online bookings until Thursday.

    It also has fly-thru promotional fares to Japan, Bali, Thailand, Singapore and Vietnam from $239.

    Singapore Airline's budget offshoot Scoot will also begin flying from Sydney to Singapore in July.

    The new airlines will make it quicker and cheaper to get to Asia than ever before, with AirAsia X offering links to more than 80 destinations.

    Sydney is AirAsia X's fourth Australian destination after the Gold Coast, Melbourne and Perth and its move into the Harbour City had been highly anticipated for some time.

    The airline had previously been denied permission to fly from Sydney by the Malaysian Government, despite receiving the green light from local authorities, because it wanted to protect its national carrier from aggressive new price competition.

    In late 2010, the airline painted the phrase "Liberate Sydney. End the Monopoly'' on the side of its newest plane.

    AirAsia X chairman Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz, AirAsia X CEO Azran Osman-Rani and members of the airline's board of directors joined passengers on the inaugural D7222 flight.

    "AirAsia X's presence in Sydney is a game changer which will deliver more competitive fares and choice for Sydneysiders," Mr Osman-Rani said.

    "We are very excited to bring some much-needed competition to Sydney's skies and continue to live up to our brand promise of Now everyone can fly.''

    Mr Osman-Rani said he had been delighted with the response to the Sydney service and the airline has recorded strong forward sales since it opened the route for sale in January.

    The sale fares are valid for travel from June 26 until September 30, 2012 and terms and conditions apply.

    Good News!!! :pardon:

     

    Airasia Not Moving Headquarter To Jakarta

     

    KUALA LUMPUR, July 25 (Bernama) -- Low cost carrier AirAsia Bhd's headquarters will continue to be located where it is now -- the mezzanine floor of the Low-Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) in Sepang, said the company.

     

    "There are absolutely no plans, nor the inclination, to move the headquarters of this Malaysian-incorporated company out of the country. And our Malaysian-registered fleet of aircraft will continue to operate from the LCCT."

     

    The airline said this in a statement to clarify news reports that stated AirAsia is moving its "corporate headquarters" from Malaysia to Indonesia.

     

    The office in Jakarta is to be called AirAsia Asean, an entity set up under the aegis of AirAsia, and the main goal of the unit is to serve as a representative office for AirAsia in efforts to broaden its branding as a "Truly Asean" airline and extend its outreach to various groups in the region in regards to aviation policies within Asean.

     

    The decision to locate this representative office in Jakarta is based solely on the rationale that the Asean Secretariat is based in Jakarta, and a regional office there would help AirAsia present its ideas regarding regional aviation and tourism growth much more effectively.

     

    This is particularly relevant at this time given that Indonesia is currently the chairman of Asean and is firmly committed to implementing the provisions of the Asean Connectivity initiative, it said.

     

    "Also, Indonesia's growth trajectory indicates it is set to increase its share of Asean's GDP in the years to come, and AirAsia is but merely moving ahead of the curve in locating AirAsia Asean in Jakarta to help increase our visibility and profile in the region's most-populated nation."

     

    This is particularly relevant at this time with AirAsia Indonesia heading for a listing on the Indonesian stock exchange.

     

    "We believe that having our Asean representative office in Jakarta will also help our group coordinate more effectively with the Indonesian authorities and interact more closely with the 240-million people in that archipelagic nation to better serve them in their increasing need for affordable and convenient air travel," it added.
