Today is further proof what an amazing asset you are to both Malaysian and indeed international civil aviation. In less than 8 short years you have beaten all odds and brought a struggling carrier and transformed it into the worlds number 1 low cost carrier. It is because of this, the world is in debt to yourself and your magnificent team, as you truly have made it so everyone can fly.

Congratulations on the launch of your London-Stansted services, bringing the UK closer to Malaysians, the greater asian region and of course my home of Australia. I hope one day to be able to repay some of the debt us Australians owe you and your company, through flying for your airline, for what you have done for us.

I wish you every success for both today and in the future.

Kind regards,
GUEST

As the aeroplane curved into the parking bay and a block of chock saddled to the front tires, the clock starts ticking for the 25 minutes turnaround.

25 Minutes Turnaround means, it takes 25 minutes for an aircraft from the moment of arrival to depart to the next destination.

It's one of the practice of AirAsia berhad in order to operate as Low Cost Carrier.

What actually happen in the 25 minutes time?

First, you will hear the boarding announcement being made for your departure.

Hello there, our Malaysian people...ya, I am proud of our own low cost carrier which is made from Malaysia. I know, Malaysia Boleh and it will "boleh" for everybody and everyone can now fly anywhere and anytime that they wish for. But, I am still in doubt, about AirAsia's On Time Performance for September is 90% on time...just want to know, how AirAsia determines this as I am curious about that statement. Thank you and I am actually one of AirAsia's regular customers.

Well, referring to the title. I think AirAsia has aeroplanes with the funkiest livery ever seen in the horizon.

Even AirAsia's standard red/white livery is one of smartest looking livery. Not forgetting the Manchester United livery and Williams ATT F1 team livery. The Airbus A320 with the "Amazing" livery does look nice well with the faces of their stewardess on it.

The new livery celebrating AirAsia winning the Best Low Cost Carrier of the year does look good as well and not forgetting the new "Bank Rakyat" livery.

Well, long story cut short. All I want to say is AirAsia has the best looking planes ever. Keep up the momentum. We as passengers of AirAsia would like to see more planes with even more funky liveries.

This is the livery that I like best.

I am a regular AirAsia patron, having flown with AirAsia to Bangkok, Bali, Langkawi, Kuching, Phuket and many more. My experience with AirAsia started many years back even before the re-branding of AirAsia to the current red & white plane and an official low cost carrier.

Even after many journeys with AirAsia, this "made in" Malaysia budget carrier never failed to amazed me. Every time I fly, there is something new & better...it is either a new menu on board, special memento items for sale, seat selection and now the new entertainment on board!

I have just booked myself for my next trip to Gold Coast and this will be my first trip with AirAsia X. I just hope that this long haul budget carrier will keep up the promise of AirAsia and cannot wait to fly in October 08. Just a small comment though on my booking....my husband has inadvertently booked a kid meal for our return flight instead of the international Asian meal. I called up the guest support to request for amendment to the meal but were told that this cannot be done due to system restriction even though the price is the same. Strange! I suppose we just have to bear with the kid meal and probably order another meal while on board.

I hope in future I can book my tour with AirAsia too...then it is really a one stop travel centre. Looking forward to my Gold Coast trip.
