Malaysia Airlines: Everyday Low Fare

"I Fly with Malaysian Hospitality"

The latest announcement made by MAS CEO Dato seri Idris Jala has really brought about some "Umph" into our pocket. As a seasonal traveler I find that being able to fly with comfort, leisure, and a peace of mind is truly worth every cents paid.

Not only had price for commodity sky rocketing but the general market in Malaysia is really slow. Walk around any shopping malls, you will see that more and more people are window shopping rather than actually shopping. Needless to say, the rich are getting richer and the poor... well let's just say they aren't getting any richer.

So, this move by MAS have solved so many problems which I first had in mind. Bus takes forever and the location it travels to is limited, Taxi is for the insane or the lucky few, and Air Asia is well I wouldn't say they are the best but I believe they have plenty of space to improve. Thus, traveling in a 5 star cruiser while paying for a pinch of money? Why not?

With Everyday Low Fare, not only I spend 1/4th of the normal price but I also enjoy in flight meals, beverages, and a comfortable seat. Last but not least, I don't have to be pushed around by other unruly passengers. Besides, the stewardess/steward from MAS is incredibly friendly and helpful! I would give them a 10 thumbs up if I have that many a thumb! haha

Air Asia! When will you improve? flights delay and terrible crowd control .. it's not going to help you. Yes, your airfare is still lower but once the word of mouth spreads on how satisfied passengers are by paying a little bit more money to board MAS ... Need I say more? I've met Dato Tony before and He is a great guy with bright ideas! Honestly, I believe it is due to his management mishandling information and planing which is causing so much inconvenience to frequent flyers.

I am waiting and looking forward on how AirAsia will tackle this problem.
