Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 16, 2010 Thanks for sharing the pix on this historic day. MXA should have touched down from HND at 6 something this morning. So did anyone catch it? 6.20 to be exact but way too early even in BKI. However she departed for KUL at 9.30am. A rather late rotation compared to an earlier AK. She is back at 4pm from KUL before doing the ICN league tonight I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sad, very sad indeed if so The last international scheduled widebody flight, MH51 will end on Jan 14 However MH2617 will be continued till further notice. All trips 777 kena sapu habis habis but in times if passenger demand on haneda and seoul is incredibly high Mas will send in the 777s on extra flights.

Alif A. F. 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 hahaha nope it was New Strait Times. Daily Express reported that some 777 will be based here (if capacity do permit such action)...err, but I still think that's too far fetch...better stick with small, longer range airliner...hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waiping 12 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 Daily Express reported that some 777 will be based here (if capacity do permit such action)...err, but I still think that's too far fetch...better stick with small, longer range airliner...hehe Yes, at this moment don't bet on it. It would probably increase to once daily with the B738 before we have any chance of B777 being stationed here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC Tam 2 Report post Posted November 17, 2010 From what I understand of the news prints, MH will add on 738 frequencies to HND and ICN when required, until such time that even daily 738 flights still cannot meet demand (slot restrictions at destination airports notwithstanding) Only then will the 777's be considered for services from BKI My guess would be by the time traffic demand from Sabah & Sarawak grows to that tipping point, those 777's we see now should be well past retirement age, well past their prime at the very least Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kenneth Chong WT 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2010 Oh no...AK axing BKI-BWN... AirAsia confirms plans to axe Brunei-Kota Kinabalu routeDebbie Too The Brunei Times Publication Date : 18-11-2010 AirAsia has confirmed that they will be cancelling their routes from Brunei to Kota Kinabalu effective Jan 3, 2011. Air Asia Berhad's Communications department informed The Brunei Times that this was due to "commercial reasons". In the past few months local consumers who had wanted to book tickets out of Brunei to Kota Kinabalu using the low-cost carrier found that they could not book their tickets for the new year, and rumours started circulating that the airlines had cancelled their flights. No further comments could be reached as of press time yesterday (November 17). The Brunei-KK route was announced last year and the booking period for daily Kota Kinabalu-Brunei flights opened in July for September 9. "The new route caters to the emergent demand from East Malaysia," stated the press statement that was issued for the inaugural flight last year. AirAsia stated that the service was targeted to "stimulate and enhance connectivity but also tap the existing market from brunei and feed the traffic to AirAsia's vast route network in the region". Kathleen Tan, regional head of commercial AirAsia, said: "We are launching this new service with direct daily flights which is a testament of our confidence in this sector. Our low fare will certainly benefit the immense demand from business travellers and foreign workers especially... from Indonesia and the Philippines." Kota Kinabalu is AirAsia's second and biggest hub after Kuala Lumpur and serves nine domestic routes including Penang, Kuching and Sibu while the international sectors are Macau, Shenzhen, Clark, Jakarta and Singapore. source...
