Suzanne Goh 0 Report post Posted May 14, 2015 So 2 flights a day operated by 787? No ler cikgu the 416 (KUL-BKK) is the return of 415 (BKK-KUL), same with 417 (BKK-KUL) /418 (KUL-BKK) - it's only one 787 a day. Shame about the 419/420 though. Last i heard the crews actually didn't like it because it was minimum rest in KUL, and had to do a very short overnight without getting the chance to jalan jalan in KL town.

Last i heard the crews actually didn't like it because it was minimum rest in KUL, and had to do a very short overnight without getting the chance to jalan jalan in KL town. Same as TG 401/402 on SIN turn - crew stays at the CP SIN. I believe MH has 2 set of crews overnighting in BKK - MH 776 crew does not turnaround for MH 797. Is TG pretty much relying on transfer traffic for its KUL-BKK flights? It's one of the most expensive carriers to fly between the two cities and it only has 2 flights a day now (compared to 7 for MH). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suzanne Goh 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2015 Yeah will certainly miss it, thanks to this load factor it was a goldmine of award availability That I will agree with - I once took a 922 outbound to FRA on a 346 with a load of 2/11/100 ish. (in the middle of 2013) Nothing unremarkable about the load except the fact that 8 of the 11 were I class redemptions (including my party of 4), and both F pax were O class redemptions also. The other 3 in business were revenue, but not exactly high yield J or C. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
