I guess even with a fly brain you can appreciate a discount. keke Hope he did not share your soup. Course that could get you a free meal or flight?

I flew AA to Bkk last year on the day before it was transferred to LCCT! When I came back LCCT was chaos.

I think its the nature of low cost carrier terminals that creates delays. I flew that cheapie one from London to Geneva some years ago, there was a 4 hour delay.

LB: LOL!! Ya I was wondering when you’d be on top again The uniforms are something to look at, I must admit. As well as the often scary makeup and maggi-mee hair that seems prevalent among the women staff

Giddy Tiger: That’s the best thing to do really! I must admit its a good deal though, but this time I hear its travel in Oct so thats a bit too far for me to consider

May: Yes yes… before getting on the plane, must do some offerings, pray to various gods and then promise to sacrifice your first born. Then you can be pretty assured of a timely flight. I didn’t have too many bad experiences with them till that Bangkok trip actually.

Beetrice: Heh… true la. They are cheap and Bangkok is a short flight. Makes sense to fly AA. I hope your July trip goes smoothly!

Tine: Wahlaueh! 8 hours is nuts! I’d have demanded some form of compensation or at least some food and water.

Pinkelle: Thank goodness! I wasn’t looking forward to it.

Tummy: Funny how all these delays mentioned here relate to Bangkok eh? Wonder why. Jinxed? But as you say, free tickets are hard to close an eye to – darnnit!

My worst experience was 3 hours delay flight to BKK at d LCCT. Swearing and fuming was d order of the day. Whenever those free tix appear, all is forgotten. Again.

My worst AirAsia experience was a frigging 8-hour delay from KL to Penang. I made the biggest mistake of actually STAYING at the bloody LCCT for 8 hours, when I should have just left for KLIA on a taxi, and booked a MAS flight instead. Both cost me the same It was a good thing a friend was with me, or else I would have seriously rotted at the terminal.

Never again? I wouldn’t say that. Like Beetrice said, beggars can’t be choosers *grumble*

Got the same email on the 500,000 tix…can understand your frustration with the delays, cos my flight back from Bangkok last year was delayed about an hour (not as bad as yours, but still…)

I must be a glutton for punishment, cos I booked tickets to Bangkok in July on AirAsia…AGAIN…sadly, the kiasu-ism won out…beggars can’t be choosers, no? *shrugs*

Oh, I missed being on top!!! The feeling is good… *sigh*
Never Say Never Again ~ Great Sean Connery Bond movie, a bit flat, but still great. Great flat movie… I’m going off in a tangent again…
I have to try AirAsia.. I hear the uniforms are ‘cute’..
