I'm excited at the new Airasia route to NZ but have a few questions as I've never travelled by Airasia before...am concerned about the long distance (13 hours?) as I'll be travelling with kids :

1. Are there any in-flight entertainment on board like movies, games? Do I need to pay for this & how much?

2. Do I need to pay to select the seats?

3. Any other helpful tips for me, esp about travelling with kids long-haul on Airasia X ?

Thanks!

Thanks for the prompt replies...kids are of primary-school going ages, so no problem of crying there ...but fidgeting & restless, likely....the only other flight to CHC frm KL is by SIA which costs abt RM 4 K pp during the Raya season next year ....and there are 6 of us in the family...so, a lot of savings there even if you include extra charges for meals, seats, baggages,etc...

The only disadvantage is the arrival time in CHC is at 2255...one day wasted ; prefer an early morning arrival..

Hi, am new here ! Just want to know :

Is AA very strict with the size & weight of carry-on baggage ( for domestic flights) ? Does ladies' handbag count as baggage?

Thanks!

I need yr advice - I want to book a return flight to Kota Bharu & there is a RM 50 difference btwn AA & MAS ( AA price with seats selected but excludes other add-ons & no check-in baggage).....which is a better option? There is also a rm12 convenience fee if pay by credit card for AA - is there such charges for MAS ?

I hv a question reg self-check-in (domestic) - with this, I do not hv to queue at the check-in counter, right ? Can just go straight to boarding gate/counter ? What if I hv luggage to check-in ?

Thanks for all the replies

But does this mean, even with self-check-in, I still have to go to the luggage drop-off counter regardless whether I have luggage to check-in or not, in order to get the gate no & verify the documents ? Is this counter different from the usual check-in counter?

Sorry for being blur, a noob at AA travel
