4 hours ago, Tom/PER said:Also as a side note -MTD hasn’t flown since 21 June, is this just maintenance related?
Yes, under 8C maintenance check. Should be serviceable to fly by next week.
-
The first one coming from ex-SAS aircraft (SE-RSB) while second one remains unknown, most probably come from ex-SAS too. The cabin config though I didn’t get much info on this matter.

1 additional A359 to be register as 9M-MAH is expected to receive by this November 2023 while another one is still under negotiation process with lessor with expectation to deliver by March 2024. Yet, Don’t get suprised that the first A339 destination would be Melbourne.

9 hours ago, S V Choong said:ANA has all forms of 787s: -8, -9, -10, while JAL has only -8 and -9... and supplemented by A350-900 (I believe a few are running domestic route for training purpose, HND-FUK and HND-CTS). I wonder if JAL will every buy the -10 to replace some of the olders JAL 772/773 and ex-JAS 772 for domestic run.
The replacement for 777 is already in place. they have ordered 13 A350-1000 with options for 25 more aircraft. Likely 772 will be replaced by 359 and 773 will be replaced by 35K. Early 359 frame configuration is catered for regional/domestic sectors.

Had worse experience than this, 9M-MTZ once bound to Taipei as MH366, supposely to take off on 9:30am but delayed to 3 pm after 3 failed rejected takeoff attempt. Imagine of 5 hours inside aircraft because passengers cant disembark the aircraft.
-
-MTY has a similar interior with -MTZ. Will it spend time in the hangar later too for the same modifications?
Yes, but unlikely to get main landing gear change for MTY. A330-300 is quite buzy lately as MH gonna has wifi installation
-
MTZ undergoes installation of centre overhead bins at business section + other package as well.

Where do the visitors come from? That kind of data is more useful for airlines, not just the absolute numbers of people.
My apology. I forgot to link the source. Here it is;
-
Kuala Lumpur is 5th most visited city in the world after Bangkok, Paris, London and Singapore. Market is there but need proper strategy
-
I hope MAHB can learn some lesson from this incident. Overdue upgrade is one reason plus multi layer management prolong the process. Well, it's just few days after 21 Anniversary.

Expected to arrived KUL today with static display for invited guests on the next day.

And the first aircraft going to be is 9M-LGC which just arrived from factory few days back.

The bump was a radome to house new gen Inmarsat's GX Aviation Inflight Broadband, which will gradually to be installed on A320 and A330. Previous wifi available A320 was equipped with older gen Inmarsat SwiftBroadband which the bump is not obvious.
-
As far as I knew, MH613 will operates daily with A330-200/300 starting 15 June/19.

I actually love the idea of MH being premium and FY as LCC/ULCC. Premium carrier having subsidiary of LCC is uprising practices in this century as premium quite struggling nowdays. Latest news I heard is Air Astana introduced FlyArystan as their new LCC.

For some reasons, Changi stands out than the rest because it's the only international airport in the country with exception of Seletar. All the resources and spending will go mainly to Changi airport. While for KLIA, MAHB has many airports scattered all around Malaysia. What people say, less quantity, more quality. It's hard for KLIA to catch out with the rest.
-
KLIA dropped to no 54 World Best Airports by Skytrax from no 44 last year.
-
Phase out their near end leased A330, maybe
-
Just revive back Firefly turbojet operations. This should cater all domestic routes in East & West Malaysia which are price sensitive while MAB solely focus on international routes.But.... it was my unrealised dream.

And I confirmed that KUL-PER served the salted peanuts. The anchovies are served in different packet of red colour.

I don’t sure about trial flights after delivery. But MAH supposely to arrive and later will proceed with C check + bridging. MAB decide to do check in-house as they had capability to do so plus saving cost. It’s common check when the aircraft is going to transfer from lessor to operator. This check plan usually takes about 22-30 calendar days. The earliest it can enter to service in mid Dec.
