The HK route is already established & thus not necessary to throw low price to attract passengers.

If u want to talk last few years, in 2010 I flew to Macau for RM25 flat.

There're free seats. Just not on every route.

I'm sure u'd taken enough AA flights to understand their marketing gimmick.

Krabi is more laid back. Some say it's like Phuket, 10 yrs ago. Slightly cheaper as well.

Alternately, u can fly to Phuket & reside @ Phang Nga bay instead.

What if I tell you, I bought 1 pax return to Clark for RM118 (Apr 2013).
And during the Manila flood (Aug 2012), my fren bought 1 pax return for RM112 (Oct 2012).

Yes, during certain promo period.
One can only get the advertised promo price when buying return tix. When u search for 1 way, the price is different, eventhough same day, same flight.

Remember to follow ur ID name strictly.

Last minute name alteration = waste time + money.

As mentioned by stimix.

Upgrade can. Downgrade no.

So I've made a habit of buying tix without any add-on or meal. While doing so 24 hours b4 flight if necessary.

liquid less than 100ml is ok.
pressurized can ie. spray etc, definitely cannot.

don't bother about web check-in & print boarding pass when u're outside of M'sia (well maybe except Thailand & Indonesia). u'd still need to Q to get the actual boarding pass & check-in luggage.

if u have a smartphone, do a mobile check-in b4 heading to the airport suffice.

Not only the airline can deny you from boarding.
Even immigration won't let you through.

Whatever your fullname in passport/ic, just enter it accordingly. Don't try to be funny.

When u do web check-in, u can key-in ur new passport particulars.

check if the original flight which u booked, are they still available.

if no, means the flight's cancelled.

then only decide.

u can change the date, by paying the fare difference + changing fees. if somehow the new date u chose, the fare is lower, probably u don't need to top-up. but forget about getting ur balance back (if any).

cancel = burn, as simple as that.

When someone query, just say u have a notebook inside.

now the system don't need to enter personal identification d.

just NAME, NATIONALITY & DOB.

Name change not possible.

U can however change the date, fare difference + penalty applicable.

Else, consider it burnt.

Depends. If it's a reschedule, I'll receive email + sms as soon as they amended the time. Then approx 1 month b4 flight date, another email/sms. I even received phone calls from AA Thailand & Philippines, 1 day b4 flight to remind me of the time change.

Last time when AA was still flying to London. I received the notification email 1 day ahead, I sms my mom telling her the flight delayed by 4 hours. But she didn't see the msg & went to the airport as planned. AA ground staff presented her with an apology letter + GBP20 meal voucher. However, the guest who knew about the delay & subsequently went to the airport later, wasn't given the same treatment.

But there's also once I wasn't notify at all. When I reached the airport & check for the flight on the info board, only I realised the flight's delayed by an hour.

As always.....
Words like : "Where're the free seat", "wasting time", "liar", "why no XXX-XXX", "got conned" etc appear everytime there's a sale.
Then u see the same bunch of ppl who always wrote: take MAS, take Malindo, take Fireflyz, back complaining on FB.

RM576 is the lowest fare for return flight to Chengdu in this promo already what. Among the figure, RM32 + RM110 goes to the airport.

If there's a cheaper alternative, go for it. Consumer need not be loyal.

May I add.

Check the full destination list. The all-in lowest fare is written there clearly. So u can gauge whether it's worth ur time.
