flights from MAS from penang to destination is much cheaper than

air asia penang-kl-destination


why AA so expensive nowadays??

AA selalunya murah kalau you order a few months before.

Macam trip to Singapore. If order now, dapat 165 return trip while MAS 200+ per trip.

kalau 165 vs r200

i lagi prefer ambik mas jugak

165 return vs 200 single trip.

Maknanya total MAS 400+.

Tu tak masuk semua kejadah lain lagi tu.

Betul. Include meal n luggage. AA apa pun tarak.

so many times i checked

for so long

MAS deals are better

so why is air asia called low cost carrier?
not cheap

yeah..MAS going cheaper if to compare with AA as all need add in separately

usually mas fuel surcharge is quite high, but that is not always the case. i bought my return flight to thailand for 220 only yo~

400 is supposed to include everything for MAS. I think they are supposed to list it that way.

And 165x2 = 330 is NOT everything. Last time Australia sued Air Asia for not listing the actual price and alot of hidden charges.

This.

But i think most major airlines plants Cookie in your browser. Everything u recheck the price, it will increase. So always clear your cookies, use different browser, or maybe "incognito mode" for chrome. Im not sure MAS' website got tracker or not. Just to be safe.

Yes this 1 i realize

They oso track ip iinm

oic

itu sebab AA always price will increase

MAS definitely more cheaper. I purchased tickets for jb-kl-dps (bali), AA around 1.2k while MAS is 9xx. For AA price i can get business class in MAS. Btw this is for November flight.

MAS marketing dept. faisl to let the customers know MAS value.

AA is an Indonesian company now.

My friend book the same route from China -> KL -> China is cheaper than I book from KL -> China -> KL at the same booking and travel period.

Agreed,

i booked last week tickets to KK in sept, MAS, all in 378 plus insurance and seat selections so thats actually only 348.

air asia?

RM600++!!!!

dun vroom2 air asia... Tony dun like liao... gib full suppork for Malaysia Nasional Carrier..

my father said... if compare both total price, mas is more reasonable

bru realize ke bang

if u just want a ticket ..then AA

if u want enjoy your flight (makan , minum) then MAS

in my case, i got makan minum enjoy all at half the price of kosong air asia.

plus it's the malaysia day weekend.

TICKET wise, yes, MAS can be cheaper. But on international airports, Tax + Surchages could easily match the price of the ticket itself hence making AA a cheaper choice.

MAS it is. but AA promo time more cheap. and international also cheaper. just cant brain the marketing dept. of MAS for more awareness

Nth beat AA if you book during promotion period or 1 year ahead.

I going Beijing this Nov. Premium Class only Rm1800 round up. I book ticket since 2012.

MAS that time eco class to Beijing also need Rm3200

i book cny tix to kuching next year, MAS, return flight rm200

AA? need pay luggage etc..in d end it will go beyond 200.

For someone who earns RM14k I dont see why u care...

fuark MAS la

fly SIN-KL-SIN only give peanuts when they said got meals. puik! asked my company's travel agency to never buy MAS liao.. SQ/MI so much better

haha peanut

but if the flight charges r cheaper than AA, at least u untung peanut

at most MAS will only match AA price, won't go below AA wan IIANM

not really

i checked many times MAS cheaper for booking in 1-2 months time

For domestic flight around peninsular malaysia (including s'pore) no meal lar, the only give you some refreshment because flight hour less than 1 hour.. sabah & sarawak yes, got meal..

i still prefer Tiger/Jetstar over AA though

unless get really good deal

le fu.. oh well

MAS has auto connecting flights to n from penang

AA have to don own self... if delay...u gone... cannot claim unlike MAS

MAS Scams customers.

They advertise one price and when you initiate payment on their website, they INCREASE their fare..........whatta SCAM!

Bought mas from KK to KL to Alor Setar for RM250..cheap..one way only..

All this people talking here about, end of the day will fly AA... So, get to work folks!

airasia sucks.

Hello, he already said rm165 is return ticket lah. Means go penang and come bck to kl is rm165. While mas return is rm400. How is that cheaper than AA?

And can u pls show me which Mas flight is cheaper than AA? Very very few if u check properly.

You book AA last minute without any promotion of course expensive lo. The strategy to Airasia is to book during promotion 1 year a head... then you see the differents. KL -> japan return ticket RM 500 only loo..

sometimes, but not all the time.

personally, i don't believe tony fernandez...

Obtw, if u fly MAS to local destinations or Nearby international destinations, u would wish ur in AA. Cuz MAS is not like b4. The seats are almost as small as AA. And the service feels like a budget carrier lah.

I flew Mas to Bangkok. Felt like budget carrier. U pay more and u get roughly the same service as AA.

I will only fly Mas if i am going long haul. Those short flights are a load of bull.

so AA dah mahal, MAS kearah kuasa besar dunia !!

AA seriously still a good Budget airline. Better than europe ryan air. Seat also dun have. Have to standing 30 to 45 minute flight.


Most of europe budget airline start follow up ryan air idea.

They have to behave like budget. Othewise they lose out..........

AA is cheaper than MAS but you have to book early and best is in promotion period

btw, as i know MAS and AA is different, can't direct compare between them. like a public bus with window open and 1 with aircon.

and why so bugging? in this competitive world, no 1 can hold the forever cheaper flight, just compare them both and make the choice la..

airasia customer is cheapskate.. they bought the flight without meal, luggage and seat selection laa.. for a short trip less than 2 hours, why cant you have a flight without meals? just have it before or after flight, more choices and cheaper..

it is cheapskate flight, why want to compare with MAS including meals and luggage.. be cheapskate laaa..

sbb the reality show "the apprentice asia" perlukan funding besar

Air Asia nowadays are very pricey. I flew MAS for the past 3 times already since the different is a mere 10% or 20% different.

for business travel, I prefer firefly.

Mas only ride when going to Sabah.

While AA always booked early to go anywhere far. but very early.

165 - pegi balik la doh....kalo tokok tambah pun baru 200++

most also add rm30-50 for MAS compared to AA

so MAS still looks better

AA now u check this price, after 1 hr u wan book price will increase

i feel the same too...
our company swapped from AA to MAS since last year , the beer and kacang is soo gooding

inb4 MAS not really cheap, but the price difference is too small i dont give a damn abt AA anymore...

wasted i cannot drink beer

kencing non stop

Ini orang tak erti baca dan faham ke??

165 is for return trip.. AA price cheaper than MAS bcos it is a no frill budget airline..
Oh Gosh.. Comprehension 0?

It makes no sense to travel by air to singapore if you live Klang Valley. It'll take you 45 minutes to an hour to reach the airport, an hour to check in and board, 50 minutes flight (not including taxiing, landing, unboarding, collecting your luggage), and another 20 minutes getting from airport to city center.

You're looking at about 4 hours of commute time.

By bus, just add an extra hour at a half of the cost, and you can sleep for 75% of the journey.

Maybe during peak season you kena suffer traffic jam??
And you know the JB-SG custom very busy 1..

It has always been like that. MAS rules, fark off AA with your sucky service

Just bought 2014 May Taiwan tix Rm490+ from AA

guys,get only Promo tix from AA, no others airline can beat it on price

tats y mas rugi every year

AA is cheaper than other conventional airline but not MAS.imagine 2k can get business class one way to japan. while 1k for economy. but if u buy from outside of malaysia u will pay the same price as others. 4k for business

Peak season you also suffer high air fare prices, and long queues at airports. Try sleeping when you're waiting to board

AA only cheaper if u book half year ahead or when have promo, else is always MAS cheaper.

that is how AA earns money, let u think they are cheaper but they actually overcharge when no promo.

Did how see how that freaking wings are shaking when descending?
Well, let's make it simpler for us.

If your life is cheap, go for AA.
If you value your life, go for better ones.

#AA

True, Even Malindo is cheaper when i check flight from kl to kk this saturday

my friend bought AA march 2014 to Japan Rm650 round trip
economy class

Btw, 165 for Air Asia to SG is consider not cheap..
Try to get below RM 90..

itu reputasi

once u got the reputation, it sells itself, even if it is not true

i could never get cheap airfare from airasia, dunno why ...

airplane wings always shake one

as long as they don't break off, it's okay one

dun worry

KL to Bintulu, MAS RM200, include luggage meals etc...



KL to Bintulu AA, RM158, just a seat, if add anything sure more ex than MAS...

Eh, u bodoh or what, where got standing in flights one???

Yes book months earlier AA is always cheaper lah. Like last night pergi balik penang I bought for rm60 total only.

Of course to fly last minute you should compare all airlines available maa.

"Don't you worry, don't you worry, child
See heaven's got a plan for you
Don't you worry, don't you worry now."
Yeah!

Dont forget to add on luggage and extra RM 12 if paying by credit card

But honestly,for dif less than rm 100,i will take MAS. Dont want step foot into that LCCT if i can. Bloody terminal is mix of everything

i have a pilot license although i do not fly plane for a living

airplane wings are build to be flexible, to withstand a lot of twist and goyang and violent vibrations

plus, they are the main storage area for the fuel

AA is expensive and a lot of 'misc' charges. Its a cheat.

Been into a lot a plane.
First time seen such shaky wings.
Balls shrink by Nine thousand nine hundred ninety nine.

it's okay la

i was on a plane (MAS) from KL to Europe, it was midnight, all other passengers on the plane dah tidur

and as i was looking out the windows, i saw one of the plane engine caught fire

no, not like hollywood movie wan, this is a real engine fire, and believe it or not, none of the pilots (they got 3 guys inside) knew about that farking engine fire !!

so i pushed the button to call the sexy lady, she came (not that "came" thing la, don't be dirty minded, ok?) and i just showed her the window

her face turned green, and she ran, no, she FLEW into the cabin like bug bunny, with her buntut goyang goyang (she got really nice buntut, what can I say??)

then two guys followed her to my place, again i pointed the window to them

those 2 guys faces also turned green, they flew back to the cabin

about a half an hour later after they put out the fire (by cutting off the fuel to that engine) they jemput me to the cabin, asked me to "keep secret" of the whole thing

they offered me a free ticket, i say, no way, too cheap

then they offered me a pair of free ticket to anywhere they fly, i say again, nope

then they got very desperate, okok, what u want ...

i say, i want something that only ur hq can gip me ...

they contacted the hq, and i got what i wanted ...

hehe... i ain't telling u what i got

I dont think mas is cheaper than airasia at least for overseas trip..because I have travel several times to indonesia..such as jakarta,bandung,bukit tinggi,medan,surabaya and bali..for me aa is more cheaper than mas..I get free seat for my trip.so only pay luggage,meal,airport tax,fuel surcharge and insurance.u must have a strategy when buying aa ticket.buying only when got promo.not immediate buying.my friend also said mas is cheaper,but after check through website,only for certain domestic destination.overseas destination really hard to get cheap ticket..if u want really cheap go for aa.but for value for money for sure Skytrax 5 star airlines which is Malaysia Airlines.

Cool story unless you tell me what you got

#1nightwithsexylady

kenot tell, or everybody will ask the same from MAS

it's a special privilege that i can use every single time i board MAS planes

Every single time??..must be Mas first class lounge at Klia rite..I'm just guess.

not just at klia, every single time i board MAS plane (even before physically boarding i got that special privilege)

that one i bargained very very hard to get, sorry la, i kenot give u guys the detail

auto first class/ bussiness class upgrade...regardless what ticket u have...

I book MAS flight for my uncle & brother from KK to KL on Nov.

RM300 return per person while checked AA return is around 400+ per person

Beggar thy neighbour approach. Ran up huge loss... no problem. gov't will bail them out

ok..i can agree with ts on this matter..

Last night, I was booking a flight.. KL-HK-KL..date 24 dec depart and 28 dec return..MAS had a offer..RM760 return except for blackout dates and other T&C..my date was a blackout date so had to get the tickets at normal price..

so everything done, i booked 2 tickets from RM2400 everything included..

then I saje2 went to Air Asia website and checked..i only went halfway through the booking process..meaning i picked the tickets date and reach the part where i had to choose luggage package..after I chose mine the (the RM30 package) the total was already at RM2600!!!

n I havent yet included the luggage package for the other passenger, the insurance, the seat choice..so I dont know how much it would have cost in the end..

just a simple comparison
MAS KL-HK = RM660
AA KL-HK = RM618

At first it looks cheap but when u add on all the shit MAS is more cheaper

u miss out liao..
last month cathay promo to hk.
2 ppl for rm15xx+ return ticket...
inb4 out of topic..

Bukan pasai cookie but the next time you check somebody else have already purchased the ticket base on earlier fares so you'll see higher fares. Budget carriers like AA seels the ticket in block fares of maybe 10-20 each fare level so sapa cepat dia dapat.

Legacy carrier like MAS however seels their regular fares but later on discounted if there are more seats to sell.

I dump banggala airasia for long already. Use skyscanner.net la senang mahu cari ticket murah

With the hustle and rowdy crowd of lcct, MH are the better choice..and with flight of more than 2 hrs its no brainer to choose them pver AK

Air Asia has better marketing team.

that's all.

shit..but was it available for the dates I'm going? I'm going at Christmas time so not sure what the best price would be since it's blackout dates for most airlines.

this i have to agree...

mas advert like shiat liao...

people carry beg dancing, bowling..

True. If I can't get AA 0 fare or total less than 100 RM and I need to fly then I choose MH.

yea agree,
if u just wanna fly and reach there don't care anything (Air Asia) .
if u want to enjoy in-flight and have a good service (MAS) .

yes..
this lady managed to book it..
http://forum.allabouthongkong.com/index.ph...r-trip-2412-11/
and i managed to book mine for end nov for 15xx 2 pax return..

they fly bcos can raba-raba flew crew or want try RAPISCAN maybe

its true why need fly to SG ???
bus or car is better, if want piap-piap during on-the-road,
try KTM / train, sure 99% times can sleep & piap.
