Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted October 31, 2010 Guys, 62 members voted; thanks a lot for that The original voting for the 6th MW Anniversary ended in a tie-break: Both KUL and BKK received 18 votes, with SGN being 3rd with 7 votes... Therefore, I've opened a new voting for you: which city is it gonna be ?: KUL or BKK ? I'll give you till the end of November to cast your votes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt - isn't the VN staff benefit cheaper than AK tickets? Or are you reserving them for your long haul jaunts?

Pieter, With hindsight, it might have been better to declare KUL the winner (in the event of a tie) since it is MW's home airport. To extend the voting by another month may compromise some would be participants' travel booking plans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted November 3, 2010 Pieter, With hindsight, it might have been better to declare KUL the winner (in the event of a tie) since it is MW's home airport. To extend the voting by another month may compromise some would be participants' travel booking plans. Closing the vote on 01dec10 will still generate 7 months to make your travel-plans IMHO... The booking period for SIN last year was a lot shorter, yet quite a few members joined ! Did not declare KUL as a winner, because of the very strict regulations there and the constant bulis interverence; you should have an alternative... Besides, traffic at BKK is far more interesting than KUL, and people might want to see/experience this for a change... But, if KUL wins the voting, KUL it will be...

Nguyen Vu Loc 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2010 I hope that you folks will decide soon on the venue as Air Asia is selling dirt-cheap fares for that specific period of June 2011. The offer lasts till 08 Nov. I'm buying a return ticket SGN-KUL for US$80 (all inclusive), the ##%% problem is after input of all the payment details and submit them, the site returns with a busy note (flying bee ZZZ! ZZZ!).

Capt, if payment is not processed but booking is received you will get a provisional status to your booking when you look at Manage Your Booking. All you then need to do is to make the payment to confirm it. If your booking did not go thru, there will not be any PRN reference at all. Many people panicked and did the same booking two or more times and got charged for every one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As I just enter MW site today, I'm trying to check "manage my booking" but the Air Asia site seems congested now, 08 Nov., the last day of this promotion. May be I can't buy the return ticket at that price anymore Edited November 8, 2010 by Nguyen Vu Loc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ikman Ikreza 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2010 MHO, besides AirAsia for BKK Malaysian members can try fly by using Lufthansa or Royal Jordan which pricing consider cheaper if 6th Anniversary will be held at Bangkok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted November 22, 2010 Liew, We've set 30nov10 as the closing date; from that date onwards to the Anniversary, it's still 7 months to make travel arrangements (= plenty of time)...do these 8 days really make a difference ?

Mohd Idham 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2010 (edited) Its a hard decision, we have interesting traffic also at KUL recently...at BKK, we have rare traffic comparing with KUL... I think it's BKK for me, i've never been there, besides aviation, i also love landscape photography, i believe BKK have lots of chances of aviation and landscape photos...

Capt, I am sure there will be some MWingers around to help you get to the spotting locations when the time comes. Perhaps this will be the first time there will be multi-location spotting on a MalaysianWings anniversary! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
