Asia Airlines

Hey fellow adventurers! I did some research for what Malaysia is known for, and one of the things that came up the most was AirAsia. Wikipedia describes it as a “low-cost airline headquartered near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It is the largest airline in Malaysia by fleet size and destinations.” It has been praised on several blogs as the cheapest way to travel around Asia. Wikipedia continues to explain:

“AirAsia operates with the world’s lowest unit cost of US$0.023 per available seat kilometre (ASK)* and a passenger breakeven load factor of 52%. It has hedged 100% of its fuel requirements for the next three years, achieves an aircraft turnaround time of 25 minutes, has a crew productivity level that is better than that of Malaysia Airlines and has an average aircraft utilization rate of 13 hours a day. In 2007, The New York Times described the airline as a “pioneer” of low-cost travel in Asia. AirAsia is the sponsor of Malaysia national football team, Singapore national football team and Queens Park Rangers. AirAsia is also a former sponsor of Manchester United and Asia Red Tour.

AirAsia has consistently been named as the world’s best low cost carrier for 9 years in a row in international travel and airline awards, including the latest award for 2017.”

Though keep in mind, it doesn’t look like all AirAsia’s are the same. At least, it looks like AirAsia Indonesia has been under a lot of heat:

  1. Nice post. I learn something new and challenging on blogs I stumbleupon every day. It will always be exciting to read through articles from other writers and use something from their web sites.

  2. Today, I went to the beach with my children. I found a
    sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear
    and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
    ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to
    tell someone!

  3. Hi, There’s no doubt that your website may be having web browser compatibility issues. Whenever I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however when opening in IE, it’s got some overlapping issues. I merely wanted to give you a quick heads up! Aside from that, wonderful site!

  4. Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
    I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough
    time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique.
    P.S Sorry for getting off-topic but I had to ask!

  5. You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me.
    I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
