I heard there will be a charter flight by SV that will be departed from TGG tomorrow (May 25, 2012). If it is true then it will be a history since TGG never service for any foreign airlines before . I will be there tomorrow and hopefully could snap some actions there. Just wondering whether SV will send the Queen 747 or new 77W. Would be very appreciate if anybody could provide the further details about the flight.

Scoot will start flying there and with their competitive price, there are less things to be worried about

I wish BA could re-instate the LHR-KUL route with that smashing 787!

it looks more like premium economy class...

Hey Jens, I got few ideas for your perfect honeymoon trip in Langkawi i)Telaga Tujuh Waterfalls aka Seven Wells: They were named after the seven natural pools along its path. In the myth, local said that fairies used to come down to the pools to bathe and frolic, well it just fairy tale after all.There are 2 viewing areas at the waterfall. The lower area is at the base of the waterfall and the higher area is where the 7 pools are. You can bathe in the pools and even slide down the slick rock between them. Be careful when you would like to get to the 7 pools because it will be quite slippery when wet along your way. ii)Laman Padi Rice Garden: Curious about what Malaysian Everyday Favorited food;Rice come from? Then a trip to rice fields would be great for you along with its nice landscaping. information and Exhibition in the Museum there available in English with details of cultivating rice process. Admission is Free. iii)Eagle Square: Among one of the main attraction in Langkawi. The square, featuring a giant eagle statue; which where Langkawi got her name from, and also beautifully landscaped scenic ponds, bridges and coverd terraces. Scenery is even more beautiful especially when illuminated at night. iv)The beaches: Pantai Cenang, Pantai Kok, Tanjung Rhu etc are some of the beautiful, white sandy beaches that located in Langkawi. Perfect for you and your love one to sit back, relax and enjoy the breezy air at the tropical seaside. v)Scuba Diving & Snorkeling: The Best spot for this would be Pulau Payar Marine Park located 20km south of Langkawi. There is a viewing platform for relaxation after your fascinating underwater adventures.Price around MYR 120-200. vi)Island Hopping Tours: Enjoy a trip to several islands around Langkawi, among others are Pregnant Maiden Island and Pulau Beras Basah. Don't forget to dive into the cool deep of the legendary Pregnant Maiden Lake. The tours usually take 4 hours and leave at 9.30AM and 2.30PM. They have pick-up service and can be booked from any hostel/motel at lower rates mostly around MYR 25-40. vii)Cable Car Ride & Hanging Bridge: Located in Oriental village just next to Pantai Kok, a ride in the cable car to the top of Mount Mat chinchang and walk across the 700m high Sky Bridge with view of the islands and Thailand would be spectacular. Alert with the weather because usually they are not operating during bad weather. Price for the trip will be around MYR 30 per pax. Of course there are a lot more attraction other than these for your enjoyment stay in Langkawi. Don't hesitate to chat with the friendly locals as they might also could inform you what other interesting places that usually most of the tourists miss to look on... Enjoy your vacation!

Don't forget JAL as well!

better be him!

Considering cancelling the a380s? What are they thinking of? While realizing the B747 are the big gas guzzler, at the same time they want to rival the premium carriers such as SQ, CX, QR, EY, EK, etc..etc with that piece of junkies? The new management board need to come out with better ideas other than this!

While Bernama sounds so optimistic reporting about this ..... http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newsbusiness.php?id=609976

So the airline is going to be named what? Qantas Asia probably?

So excited... materialize this quick!

I am so touching with the happy and joyous expression from the kids. Kudos to Captain Nik and the team

The male uniform one look a little bit same with QR's except for the tie...correct me if I am wrong...

my boy just graduated with a bachelor of arts not in science stream. is SQ would consider him to be a cadet?

Finally a380 in KUL. Better late than never!

SQ launched Tiger Airways to compete with AK and end up with 'Broken Image'. This one is going to be the same but in the 'long way'.

Any advantages of using LGW over STN?

I think those B777 are still reliable for next few years. the only things that MAS should do to those planes is to fully refurbish the interior with the latest products that available in the market!

All thumbs down to MH!

Hah...for two consecutive years MH lost to two main ARCH RIVALs in World's Best Cabin Staff category: SQ in 2010 n now OZ in 2011? It seems like MH cabin services was declined. They better do something to improve both their hardware and 'software'.

urgh...the man resign from RBA already? Now everything make sense now! Sorry for the wrong quote...

Even ex-SQ exec (RBA current CEO) can't apply one or two of SQ recipe for success!

Wow...if the 5th freedom will be applied for BKK-KUL, I would be more than happy! Looking forward to fly with MS ultra modern 77W!

so no 77W or at least 747-8...:-(
