Well, most airlines configure reduced seat pitch because of slimmer seats

Rumours from engineering div, -MPP is gonna release to service in 2-3 weeks time.

Some "local" only know how to deepen pocket. How come those without aviation background runs the airline.? Trouble.

Yes, the repainting of retro livery is in Hangar 2 Subang.

So, the seating configuration is going to be 27J, 16Y+, 247Y made up total of 290 seats.

it's glad to see the former flagship back again, with retro livery. Looking forward to spot her in action.

JHB, AOR, SZB and KBR posted an outstanding double digits growth. By looking trend between Q3 '14 and Q3 '15, I guess KBR will able to reach 2 millions passenger traffic by year end with newcomer Rayani Air although the effect is seems minimal.

Agreed with you. Rather than talking nonsense such as MH cabin crew uniform, why didn't support for this one. Since it's a fresh new starter company, there's many of improvement can be done in coming years. We can't compared them with Malindo air which belongs to Lion group . Just wishing a better livery. kinda remind me of MH.

meanwhile in other 'world', what the foreigners think of Rayani Air http://www.airliners.net/aviation-forums/general_aviation/read.main/6580853/

And also if delayed flight involving in overnight in certain base, crews must at least to get rest for 8 hours before roster up.

I believe that -MNF is being chartered by Barcelona FC on BCN-NRT-BCN sector

And tons of makeup too, for ladies.

Maswings "peninsular or west malaysia" version

Somehow ticket counter at KBR is much better than these 'boxy' booth :/

32' seat pitch and 18' seat pitch on MH A380 should be standardized on their widebody fleets with extra pitch is a plus. I found the seat is quite comfy thou seat in SQ A380 is a bit wider.

So in two class A380 will see a reduction of 0.5 inch seat width in economy class. Small difference but very meaningful to those big size. Hehe

Does MAB ready to receive passengers' flow from Emirates with current size of fleet? I guess some destinations will be using widebody fleets on certain flights.

I hope that MAB should allocates total of 18 738 at crew bases consists of non-BSI and MS-series,and dont forget FF series while leaving all BSI (MLM onwards) and MX series 737 at KLIA hub for regional flights.

Expect QF comeback to KUL? 😄

Glimpse of the website

AirAsia Bhd will shift its operations to Terminal 1 of the Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA) next month, ending a two-year resistance to move to the RM1.7 billion complex. People familiar with the development said the budget carrier is now negotiating with Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) on office and commercial space rentals before the move, expected to happen by the end of October. The Transport Ministry had to intervene and expedite AirAsia’s move to Terminal 1 due to the frosty relationship between AirAsia and MAHB. “AirAsia had submitted some proposals to the Transport Ministry which include the airline building a low-cost carrier (LCC) terminal at the current Terminal 2 location. “While all the proposals are being scrutinised, the announcement by the prime minister (PM) shuts all doors to the airline except to move back,” the source told The Malaysian Reserve. Last week, PM Datuk Seri Mohd Najib Razak urged the LCC to move to the new terminal immediately. Najib said AirAsia had exceeded the deadline. The move is also crucial as the present Terminal 2 would be converted into a cargo hub. However, it is believed that the airline has submitted a fresh proposal which contains a set of rules if they move to the upgraded Terminal 1. The move is inevitable as Terminal 2 could not cater to the high number of passengers. Built to cater for two million passengers per annum, the terminal saw 3.6 million passengers passing through its gates last year. AirAsia was instructed to move to Terminal 1 in 2011, but had delayed the shift, citing cost and terminal constraints as the main reason. However, MAHB gave a final deadline of Aug 1, for the airline to move but was ignored by AirAsia. The LCC claimed that Terminal 1 would not be able to accommodate its future aircraft expansion plans including to bring its affiliate company, AirAsia X to Kota Kinabalu and make the airport its hub. The South-East Asia’s largest LCC also said the higher operations costs at Terminal 1 will trickle down to its passengers. AirAsia currently flies 518 flights to 10 international and eight domestic destinations. Last year, Chinese nationals were the airline’s largest passenger load to Sabah at about 159,000, followed by Hong Kong, Taiwan and Indonesia. The Terminal 1, built at a cost of RM1.7 billion, handled 3.19 million passengers last year. Presently, 14 airlines are operating from the terminal which has 64 counters to service domestic and international flights. http://themalaysianreserve.com/new/story/airasia-move-kkia-terminal-1-next-month

Looks like new destination for Malindo Air already appears on booking engine is to be in India; Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee Int. Airport, AMRITSAR. The frequency is thrice per weekly on Fri, Sun, Wed. First flight to be schedule on 25 October 2015. OD271 KUL-ATQ 09:15 - 12:25 737 OD272 ATQ-KUL 13:15 - 21:35 737

Well there still plenty of empty land occupied by palm trees at the end of runway 22 and those land is already taken by state government for future development. If they intended to expand on current terminal, it's hard as due to nearby to main road and neighbourhood homes which located near near to runway 10.

Emm aer Lingus style maybe? Where you buy on what you want Such as onboard meal, luggage and so on.

Update: MALINDO air B737-8GP; 9M-LNT, has been delivered on 31 July 2015 ​
