Their domestic offers is pretty good, however the superb oneway prices which they advertised for international routes is pure misleading as you'll incurred 'fare surcharge' if you make the booking on return basis, for example:

KL-HKG Oneway = $199, Return = $805

KL-Cebu Oneway = $99, Return = $498

KL-London OW = $699, Return = $2468

Same gimmick which has been used on their previous sales, really wondering who is the genius behind this misleading pricing strategy.

why have to use this kind of tactic? just lay all cards on the table lar..

Agreed. These kind of dirty tactics at the end just pissed off all the potential customers only. Imagine if you saw the $199 oneway fare to HKG, wah so excited bcos you thought you can grab the $398 ++ return fare but the actual return promo fare is $805++ (more than 100% fare surcharge!)! :angry: :angry: :angry:

It is exactly the same tactic AK, Air Asia X, JQ and many other Asian carriers used.

Please don't simply make a statement if you wasn't sure on the facts.

 

AK - If the promo price is $49.90++ oneway to BKK, the same lowest promo price applied for the return sector (subject to availability

of course)

If the promo is $0.00 ++, same promo applied to both sectors.

 

Air Asia X - They haven't even official announce & launch their first destination, not to mentioned about booking. Nothing available at the moment & how you know they are gonna use the same tactic applied by MH at the moment?

 

JQ - Jan 07 KL route annoucement launching RM250++ Oneway (RM500++ return) on their new KUL-SYD route.

Aug 07 sales, RM88++ & $488++ oneway depends on the travel date. You can get both sector at RM88++ if you are quick

and flexible enough (as shown by Naim in seperate post on JQ sale).

 

Many other Asian carriers? - well you better give us some proof on how & when they use the dirty tactics applied by MH at the moment.

For Asean destinations Yes you can do that as MH is running the same sales across all Asean countries as well. Thus buying OW KUL - BKK & charged in RM while another ticket OW BKK-KUL & charged in THB. By doing this you can get some savings and avoid the 'Fare surcharge' from return trip bookin.

 

However MH is not conducting this sales outside Asean Countries thus you have no choice but to incur the 'fare surcharge' on your return ticket.

Those who can really benefits from this sales is those who can purchase and allowed to enter with One Way ticket - students, migrant, foreigner based in Malaysia/Asean etc.

Agreed!

 

But whether this is true or not true, the fact that most airlines are advertising their fare net of all the non-optional extras mean we consumers are not seeing what we end up paying for. This seem to be the industry norm (at least in Asia) and I find it very upsetting <_>

this could be a bit OT, i still cannot understand why some airlines (ok, e.g. CX) can keep reducing fuel surcharges (which is good for passengers), while the same carriers (full service) in the same region keep rising fuel surcharges...

This kind of sales could only have happened because AK is there to compete. In the end passengers benefit.

 

It is like getting fares of the 1980s!

 

By the way, I don't think AK will take this sitting down. I'm sure they have something up their sleeves. They always better MH, like with their 'free' + surcharge fares. Now wonder if MH will try to equal that?
