QUOTE(Dothan @ Feb 6 2026, 11:58 AM) Anyone has tried HKexpress to fly to Japan? Care to provide your opinions about HKexpress flight? I also wonder any issue/extra payment for transiting in HKIA? i tried HKexpress from Haneda -> HK and back to HND..wouldn't recommend tbh unless your top priority is cheapest flight with almost no luggage

I believe lotsa folks here fly MAS from KUL-NRT. They're okay. However, I prefer the JAL and ANA service any day of the week. It's head and shoulders more consistent and satisfying than MAS.

Biggest disadvantages are slightly noisier cabin compare to MAS A330/350 and older IFE systems. However, I'll let you decide against JAL vs MAS service and food quality wise.

I found MAs 's inflight service is better than SQ. No comment on JAl as i have never taken their flights before.

Haha... thats the norm for budget airlines. Not to mention their check in counters are at the furthest end in the airport and so are the boarding gates. Its the same everywhere in the world.

Geez... very AA pattern, seems like not worth to get such lousy service. Paying 1k more to SQ to have more humane service and in-flight meal seems a better deal.

Believe they are basing on the number of adults checking in. Say if you have a twin double bed with 4 adults checking in, likely you will get 4 keycards.
