I am always skeptical as to whether the concept of budget airlines can be applied to long haul flight. AAX has terminated the services to Europe and several cities in India.
For a start, unlike AA, meal is not optional in AAX; secondly, the seats have larger legroom.
One tactic used by AA is this: when an planes fly from KL to say, Bangkok, it will return immediately. AA thereby saves on hotel bills and meal allowance for the pilots and cabin crew. But this tactic is not applicable for flights from KL to Europe.
I believe the cancellation is due to lost of landing rights, this part u need both government green light. I could be wrong in this case For a start, unlike AA, meal is not optional in AAX; secondly, the seats have larger legroom.
