M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2006 S V Choong, Your most welcome. Sectors listed only for NSD routes. AKL may get NSD a/c but the service is not (NSD). That's why not on the list. I don't think MAS will cut many of its international destinations as reported on newspapers, especially in preparation for 2007, the year of Visit Malaysia Year, as tourism is Malaysia second largest source of income after manufacturing and I am sure our government aware of this. But I don't know, it is just my amateur point of view. There are many ways to cut cost. Among the possiblities they looking at are short stay trip/mininum rest period for cabin crew, less frequencies, reduction of ground staff operating at boarding gates and etc. To someone, We all know MAS enjoy high load factor on most of its international/most of its domestic flights, but the number one culprit is low yield... and oh yea, there is no such thing such as "for the sake of pride" routes... it's all purely economic. MAS may suffer, but Malaysia gain something from MAS difficulties. One last thing, in case you doesn’t know, one of MAS 5 corporate objectives is:- … service within Malaysia which directly links Sabah, Sarawak and Peninsular Malaysia and contributes to the ECONOMIC and SOCIAL integration of the country as whole. Enuff said and that's for 114 unprofitable domestic routes. What a burden? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, it's depend on the ticket given by his company. it's not even. once he flew on KLM 734 and once on 738 CDG-AMS route. lately, his company mostly give AF A320 for that route. i jsut got the confirmation from him that he will be flying AMS-KUL on the 8/3. he also tell me that he flew on the Hibiscus for KUL-LHR route on 6 February. this is how his flight goes, from KUL, KUL-LHR-CDG-LDA to KUL, LDA-CDG-AMS-KUL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kandiah k 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 Just got back from the airport after fetching my mom who's returning from EWR this morning. She asked me if MAS had painted their plane blue ? Of course I wasn't surprised that she asked but was more so because she said she came in that blue plane. Thought I'd share this info with you all that MRD is now being used to EWR and ARN.

K P Tnay 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly differentiates NSD service with non-NSD? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew K 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2006 I think its the cutlery, the food, tableware and the service delivery itself. No more 'pick and choose buffet' from a tray but rather like a restaurant where you order food off a menu and its delivered to you course by course individually. Takes more time but you get more attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
