Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted August 12, 2009 This one is just too good to be left out. Apparently Uncle Tony posted this in all his personal channels (FB, Twitter etc) Tony FernandesMaswings ceo silly and emotional. We wanted to fly kk sibu. They have exclsuive so said no. So we withdraw. End of story. Fatcs are facts. 7 hours ago · Comment · Like But I guess, the revelation made by MASwings CEO has shown clearly who is the culprit. MH screw some, so does AK (in this case). This incident just further strengthen the impression that I have that the picture as posted 7 replies above is pure gimmick.

The language and the country itself are referred to as السعودية (As Saudiah) instead of العربية (Al Arabiah) and الامارات العربية المتحدة (Al Imarat/the Emirates). It seems like D7 is very keen on the Saudis (the inclusion of JED and Mecca in its KUL-AUH vv promotional page, confusion over UAE and the Arabic language as 'the Saudis' LOL).

jani 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2009 I think this is a big one from Azran Osman on his Twitter a few days ago: "Airbus boys in town. Heard our friends may copy our aircraft fleet strategy, down to the number of orders!" MH to order 26 A330's and 10 A350's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted August 30, 2009 If MH were to 'photostate' D7's widebody fleet strategy, it could be 25 A333s (probably with convertible options to A350) and 10 A350s with 5 more options. Should be interesting to see what variant of the A350s that MH is going to choose. In my opinion, the -800 (which will replace A330-200 (should fits MH's requirement nicely. It has proven that the current A333s in MH's fleet with 298 seats in 2 classes are just too big for most of its route. The decision to go for A350 might as well resulted from further delay of the B787 program, the aircraft that many foresee MH to fancy. As for Uncle Tony's question, most of his fans believe he will make a great Transport Minister or Tourism Minister. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jani 0 Report post Posted August 30, 2009 If that is indeed true, then my dream of seeing a 77W in MH colors would never be realized Mind you, an order for A350's now would probably mean deliveries close to the year 2020! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flee 5 Report post Posted August 31, 2009 MH might go for leased A333s and these will be replaced by A350s when they become available. I think they are better off copying SQ than D7... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't that a prove for MH's 5 star-world class thorough, thoughtful, tactful and strategic decision making? I'll be 40 years old by then. It could be very well take event during the next financial crisis too (1997-1998, 2008-2009, 2019-2020). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mohd Azizul Ramli 2 Report post Posted September 6, 2009 I think the CEOs are not flying for free, but on heavily discounted tickets for premium classes. Maybe Uncle Tony happened to have to go to LHR pronto that any connection even in SIN will delay his business OR probably he wanted to check out how good (or bad) business is onboard MH since D7 joined the fray. I am more inclined with the latter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
