BKI/WBKK 2015

Recommended Posts

First day of New Year, first Air Asia X A330-300 in BKI/WBKK. Combining AK5108 and AK5110.

 

Speculations please. BKI - ICN soon?

Perhaps T2 not large enough to accommodate A330?

 

 

Perhaps. I think T2 has 7 bays for A320. Not sure how many for A330 if there are a few A320 already definitely not enough parking.

 

They must have informed the passengers that they will be reaching at T1? Imagine the confusion of friends/families picking the passengers of that flight. What? T1? Really? Sure? You flying AirAsia or not?

 

I didn't have the thought that AirAsia can upgrade their flights from A320 to A330 for KUL-BKI leg, like what MAS can do during peak demand. Must be some special reason and a one off???

T2 probably does not have the stairs needed to board an A330.

indeed. T2 does not have any Ground Support Units for a 330. plus we did notice they Transport some luggage and cargo from T2 to T1 by using the small tow truck along the perimeter. but question is, how about the passengers? it still a myth.

Today's MH2604 weather related diversion (which happens to several flights over several times in a year) got into major news outlets. Why is it even in the news?

Yup, wonder if the delay was within expectation as original turn-around was supposed to be 1 hour but departed almost 1/2 hour late. I didn't check if the subsequent flight by XXS was delayed though.

Seems like KE has been replaced by LJ (Jin Air)? :(

Yup, the BKI <-> ICN route was transferred from its parent company Korean Air on the 22/12/14. Doing what SQ does I guess.

PK-OCT is making a move soon.

 

My database however shows it is PK-LIW B734. FR24 is also showing it as a MD82, but funny enough the picture is a Lion Air B739. Anyone has a visual of this?

It was parked at one of the remote gates. I was on Mh 2613 to KUL. Was there at 8am. I completed my check in and had my breakfst at dunkin donuts. Upon departure i noticed the mad dog was already gone. Forgot to check on fr24.

Light isn't good though today... i think.

I can confirm that - been one of those miserably downcast, at times drizzly kind of day throughout

(even departure of internal auditors from office failed to lift the gloom) :D

How about the taxiway extension... is that project done??


PK-OCT is in town apparently. Indonesia's AirFast MD82. Anybody near WBKK?

 

Saw her in DPS last month. Is she an upmarket charter?
