100% Airbus for AK in June

[Ivan Ong 0]

From the website, AK will be operating all A320 fleet in June? Any idea which route is still using B733s at the moment?

By process of elimination, for sure KUL-JHB-KUL is out. Daily flights now on A320.

Well, East Malaysian domestic routes all are still using B733 like BKI-MYY, BKI-SDK, BKI-TWU, KCH-SBW, KCH-MYY.

 

Only those are originated from LCCT are using A320. With the exception that planes originated from LCCT will be using on East Malaysian domestic routes will be a B733. For example like the last AK flight KUL-BKI (AK5121 2115Dep-2345Arr) will be stopping at BKI for the night and operate the domestic route early next morning with in Sabah and Sarawak.

Another exception is that B733 will be use on the flights originated from BKI or KCH to any West Malaysian destination and will return to KCH or BKI on the next sector. (eg: BKI-PEN-BKI or KCH-PEN-KCH or BKI-JHB-BKI)

 

Hope my explanation is not too confusing or hard to understand.

Bravo Adrian! I always wondered what was the last sector of the 733 that going to MYY the next morning.

As of Saturday they still use the B733 for KUL-TGG-KUL flight.

Thanks for the info....... Do you think that the East M'sia side will be using A320s or B733s after June? Or 100% Airbus is for destinations originated from LCCT only?

Originate from LCCT only.
