Malindo New Routes & Destinations

Recommended Posts

Probably they need to put back the signboard on their SBW office. Glad to see them making a comeback to SBW.

Oh and don't forget; they recently received 2 Batik Air B738s as well. One of them is 9M-LCC, where the tail is still in Batik Air color with Malindo Air title on the fuselage.

BNE via PER would make no sense in terms of aircraft rotation. Expect BNE non-stop. The -900ER would have better paylod numbers, but the -800 could make it to.

 

Currently SilkAir does operate CNS-SIN and SIN-CNS using 737-800s. But not everyday flight - the flight is occasionally SIN-DRW-CNS or CNS-DRW-SIN

When Malindo was first mooted, my initial reaction was that Lion was trying to get around the EU blacklist by using it to mount flights to countries where it will be banned. It is coming true, day by day.

Hmm.

 

Here's a question - can the current OD planes fly to KIX? I know they are going to TPE soon, but does it have enough legpower to fly to KIX from KUL, or you still need to get airborne from BKI?

im just curious why havent they fly to Phuket as well-both AK and MH always have good loads on this route and Phuket is the second busiest airport in thailand after bangkok

I suspect they can't get good slots as it is a slot constrained airport.

 

Airasia has also said that their newly ordered A321neos will be used to fly into HKT due to this problem.

Wait...what? ATR ops based in KCH and BKI?

There were plans but i think OD is cautious on this because apart from MYY and SBW the secondary routes in borneo are always loss making no matter what is done. You can just see by examining the average passenger load. POB 12, 5, 21 on an ATR to the smaller airports.

 

On another note perception also plays a part majority of them would rather take AK not sure but to them it feels more sturdy and stable and most of the time cheaper. I took ATR on MASWings before and it was more susceptible to slight turbulence as apposed to the old Fokker 50(Pilots can attest to that) and i had not rode on ATR since. So OD has to work hard if an ATR is to be based in KCH or BKI.
