AlvinLvK 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2012 Just did some usual spotting on Sunday morning, the special livery AK that visited was 9M-AHQ, in Bank Rakyat Livery! (Thanks Michael for the info! ) seems like this bird quite rare being catched by our BKI spotters... Guess where are they going? Here's the answer! another close-up ! spot again in the evening, actually we were waiting for our VVIP that day, which was Maskargo 9M-MPR(ETA 1835), after waiting for about 45 minutes, it's 6.46 pm already but there is still no sign of the 74F which came from PVG, and the sky became darker and darker...so we decided not to wait for him already, quite disappointed but at least we managed to catch a RBA B772 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michael Chai 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2012 That's quite marvelous shot Alvin I share mines on the Sunday Spot, as well as previous spot. The 100th Aircraft for Airasia~ Landing~ Gotta catch it before crying over a split milk~ This time I got BIMP livery very clearly. Such a rare visitor nowadays in BKI. Here's mine version of BI B772. xD And previously I do catch some Airasia Liveries, including Dr. M We managed to find a small hill somewhere near Runway 02 and with nice view too. Taken while MH2617 hold short of Runway 02. While I take this sunset view of AK landing In WBKK. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szesyn 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2012 I would do almost anything to get Dragonair to resume flight to Kuching! Just why nobody from Kuching go to Hong Kong is beyond me! No business opportunity? Language barrier? Haiz... I am sure there is a demand given that there is a daily (?) KCH-BKI-HKG flight. When KA stopped flying to KCH, they reported that they were merely "suspending" the service and KCH still appeared on their route map in their inflight mag for a while but it was eventually taken off. I think KCH has a market for at least one Chinese carrier particularly Xiamen Airlines given the strong affinity between our Sarawak Foochows and their Chinese counterparts. There was talk back in 2002 of a Fuzhou-KCH direct flight but nothing came of it Now I am just waiting for Cebu Pacific to make good their intention to start their MNL-KCH flight. Sure will save me time travelling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Language barrier? Haiz... I doubt if it's attractive if they have to depend on pax too much. In fact, I doubt if the multiple dailies from BKI can be sustained if not for the valuable cargo in bellies of the birds flying BKI-HKG sector (sorry, probably not best thread to have this discussion in ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isaac 0 Report post Posted April 8, 2012 (edited) I am sure there is a demand given that there is a daily (?) KCH-BKI-HKG flight. Yes. There is still a daily flight but the thing is, almost all passengers got off at BKI. There are sometimes transit passengers to SDK and TWU but almost none for KCH. I doubt if it's attractive if they have to depend on pax too much. In fact, I doubt if the multiple dailies from BKI can be sustained if not for the valuable cargo in bellies of the birds flying BKI-HKG sector (sorry, probably not best thread to have this discussion in ) But then, passengers load are very good too for KA and even MH for the BKI/HKG sector (i write even MH because MH's load always seems poorer than a rival carrier flying the same route ). So i guess that's a plus. MH seems to get many passengers from the Mainland China through MU. Pretty much all the Mainland Chinese flying MH either just got off a MU flight or are on their way to HKG to catch a MU flight back to their motherland. I noticed they are many Malaysians going to Shenzhen, Guangzhou area taking the MH/KA flights to HKG too. Anyway, even AK is offering 10 flights a week now between BKI/HKG. I guess demand is big. And KA is still deploying their 333 to BKI whenever there is a school holiday. There will be two KA flights operated by 333 for the first sem break this year (29th May & 4th June) Edited April 8, 2012 by Isaac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
