Malaysia's new budget airline which would offer FULL SERVICE, meaning passengers or rather customers would be enjoying the normal services like food, seat assignment and oooh ya..that would most certainly include the aerobridge.
Basically the new Hybrid Airline would offer customers the normal expected service without any HIDDEN CHARGES and the FULL SERVICE comes much cheaper than conventional airlines like SIA or MAS.
The new airline will offer ticket prices lower or at least on par with that of another Malaysia lCC airasia.
1. NADI has Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul expertise and ample space in Subang. Lion Air has 100 over aircraft in operation and some 600 more on order.
2. Lion Air is restricted to a degree by congestion at Sukarno-Hatta which has resulted in it not being able to improve its dispatch reliability. Moving some of its aircraft to KLIA will solve part of the problem. KLIA has ample space with the construction KLIA2 low-cost terminal;
3. AirAsia could mount a response by using its Jakarta Asean Hub. So will Airasia do that?
1. Some 10% of the existing overstaff MAS will be transfered/seconded to Firefly when it starts the jet services.
2. MAS engineering will be in position to secure the MRO businesses not only from Firefly but also Malindo Airways.
3. MAS long haul services will benefit with new LCCs excercise.
4. MAS is in re-negotiation of their contract on F&B with Skycafe. With new LCCs coming to KLIA2 there a chance the re-negotiation will be successful and favorable to both parties.
5. Skycafe which MAS is also a shareholder stands a good chance to secure F&B business from these new LCC.
So folks, dump AA and starts buying MAS.......hahhahahahahahah!!
Lion Air (including its Wings Air subsidiary) is on the list of air carriers banned in the European Union due to safety concerns as of February 2012. The airline has applied multiple times for membership in The International Air Transport Association (IATA), but it has been denied due to several safety concerns.
The transportation ministry recorded that Lion Air's OTP of 66.45 percent was the worst of six airlines in an assessment conducted from January to April 2011 at 24 airports nationwide.
In January 2012, the Transportation Ministry said that it sanctioned Lion Air because some of its pilots and crew members were found in recent months to be in possession of crystal methamphetamine.
"competition is good for consumers! capitalism at work!" -- Fully agree with this. Bring it on! To be fair, the government had better do something about MAS very soon and be firm about it. Then, with the local car industry. Let these be like the telecommunications industry. Remember the bad old days when it was so costly to make an outstation call? Or the various charges in owing a handphone? But thanks to competition, we have all benefited. Nowadays, even primary schoolchildren can own and maintain a handphone!
1. Rusdi dismissed suggestions that Malindo Airways will be competing with AirAsia, the region's biggest low-cost carrier, in its home market.
2. "We are not competing, but rather complementing by bringing in more passengers. We are also looking at selling tickets at Air Asia's pricing, but with value-added services for passengers such as Wifi and inflight entertainment," he said.
3. Rusdi said Malindo Airways will fly out from few cities in Indonesia such as Medan, Pekan Baru, Makassar, Surabaya and Bali to Kuala Lumpur and Kota Kinabalu. The passengers will then be able to fly to other destinations like to Japan, China and India.
4. "We will use Jakarta and Bali as hubs for passengers flying from Malaysia to Australia," he said.
So folks, more people will fly Malindo Airways & Firefly however less will fly AA.
To the cowboy traders here: could this sharp drop present an opportunity to "Menaguk di air keruh" with a few brave buys of the call warrants? But only if a rebound is likely. If it continues to slide, then the cowboys with warrants will be in trouble.
