M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Hello, Just an update. Hope you guys don't mind. Child Meal Box Set (at least for narrowbody flight ex-kul, maybe nicholas can confirm for widebody flight ) - Now come in paper box instead of plastic box - 3 nicely design/colour; red, blue and yellow - Each colour represent different type of MAS widebody a/c. Namely B747-400, B777-200 and A330 series - After meal, children can cut (pre cut already) the paper box to make their personal paper cut aeroplane (B747-400, B777-200 and A330 series) to play with - Better then the plastic box - This is what i called "form follows function for functionalism". rules of Bauhaus Playing Card - no stock. - no uplifts. Why? Cost cutting. Thanks, Fai. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walter Sim 1 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 waaaa, i'll ask... What are the chances of them loading it inflight? dont children meals need to be requested... some parents dont bother to order as they kid eat whatever there is on board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 (edited) CHML (Child Meal) on request basis only made by their parents. Whereas YPTA (Young Passenger Traveling Alone) and UM (Unaccompanied Minor) automatically entitle for the CHML. A wise ticketing officer will make a request on behalf of his/her/our little passenger. I don't understand, why MAS doesn't allow their ticketing officer (who is interested in joining the cabin crew dept) to "switch" their job. Their knowledge (ticketing code and etc) is valuable especially when handling difficult F or C Class passenger (upgraded/restriction/etc case) trying to fool us. I'm still learning the secret code of ticketing from my ticketing friends. Yes, playing card = poker card deck. Just to make things clear, Playing cards and peanuts are not the standard items/uplift for economy class on narrow body flight. However on Airbus flight peanuts are standard item/uplift. Plus limited quantity of playing cards available onboard. Normally, when economy class passenger asks for these items on board narrow body flight, we will manage to get some from GCC. Basically, GCC pax gets the priority lah abis cerita (to end the story)... Walter, The chances, ermmm, not sure. But from my own experience. About 90% of the meal service flight I did to date got chml. Maybe now is the good time, school holiday kan. Edited December 9, 2005 by M N Fairizuan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However on Airbus flight peanuts are standard item/uplift. Plus limited quantity of playing cards available onboard. On my flight back to Auckland early November 2005. I asked for playing cards to kill sometime in a 10 hours long flight. The crew told us that MAS have not prepared the cards for that flight and that they don't have any at all! It was a widebody Boeing 747-400 as well. I seriously think that flight was my worse MAS international flight ever. But fortunately the a/c is very new......9M-MPQ delivered a few years ago.

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 These cost-cutting measures have touched quite a few things on the passenger / customer side. If it goes on, there will be left only skeletal remains of what little MAS passangers are used to and may backfire on the airline. What comes with the 'premium' passengers pay for when they fly on MAS. While it can be appreciated that they are cutting cost, I think removing too much of the little comforts from the very people who are helping to prop up MAS by flying with them, should be the very last resort.
