Top 3 now: 1 - BKK 2 - KUL 3 - HKG Please, do vote if not done yet !!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S M Tang 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2010 Any idea if we could get the admins to write a letter to MAHB to grant us permission for a one day spotting session at a 'strategic spot'? I remember seeing MalaysianWings being featured on The Star before and a few of our admins being selected by MAS to try out their simulator as part of their launch of the simxperience. Perhaps highlighting these few 'highlights' in the letter to MAHB would help too. Just my two cents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh T 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2010 So, what happens during these anniversary get-togethers. I'm only relatively new but I'd be quite keen to attend one if I can. Anyway, I voted for KUL. I hate going to BKK. <_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prestley Shim 0 Report post Posted September 12, 2010 (edited) as much as i would love it to be held in KCH, but i must agree that it is not a suitable location. KCH HAS traffic, it's not that slow, just moderate but the type of traffic and spotting location is an issue. we have very few airlines serving KCH here and mostly we get AK, MH, TR and maybe BI. so sadly, a no for KCH this year Edited September 12, 2010 by Prestley Shim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted September 12, 2010 Spotting all day and then dinner... If it is the agenda, why don't you try SGN or HAN. Traffic can't compete with the 3 top airports that Uncle Pieter mentioned but lunch, dinner, beer. etc... are scrumptuous at 1/3 to 1/2 the prices of BKK or KUL? No bulis harassment. ASEAN spotters don't need visa, plenty of flights from Air Asia (AK, FD, QZ), Jetstar, Tiger, Lion Air, mini-hotel twin-bed room, A/C, en-suite bathroom/toilet/Cable TV @US$18-20 for 2 pers. If we focus on the 3 airports, I'll vote by order: 1/ KUL (at Ladang ) 2/ BKK (Prompong to take us to the wat location ) 3/ HKG (subject to visa which take at least 3 weeks for Vietnamese) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted September 12, 2010 Uncle Vu Loc, With only 3 votes, I don't think SGN will be elected, but you never know, as voting is still open until 31oct10 MW members can always go there individually and enjoy the Vietnamese food/drinks (like I do)...

KC Sim 2 Report post Posted September 13, 2010 SGN is certainly one location I would love to visit for spotting, shopping (love those vintage Air France posters rendered in lacquer), eating, eating, eating and eating. When I do that, I will certainly want to try out the amazing-value hotel mentioned. KC Sim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
