Air Asia

....you're probably right alangirvan.

Air Asia have got the LCC model down to its most pure form.
  • Boarding passes are bits of paper like "shopper dockets".
  • Free seating...........so its C-H-A-R-G-E after the first boarding call !
  • At KUL's LCC Terminal ( of the year -sic! ) they might have 5-6 734/3's /A-320's all lined up so trying to find WHICH aircraft is yours is a challenge in itself.
  • On board its leather seats, tight config on 737's, not so bad on A-320's.
  • Food/drinks comes around by cart after takeoff. If you want you buy , if not........ sit there and read. No audio entertainment.
  • Crew-mainly female,short /short-tight red mini's,hair out, looking glam is a major requirement,-light on service or smiles.
  • You get what you pay for. ....Flying bus service from A to B.
  • They are really shaking up air travel in Asia. Jetstar, Tiger and Silk Air must be thinking -WHOA !
They've just announced a purchase of another 100 x A-320's so they are serious.
Also, they plan to fly to Europe and further afield in the not too far distant future.
