So I think it's a good chance for UL to launch direct flights to Australia!!
PETALING JAYA - Malaysian Airlines System Bhd is expected to cut as much as 25% of the capacity of its network in 2015, which would spell bad news for Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) as 2.2 million seats vanish from its airports, all of which are international passengers that provide the highest revenue per passenger.
Maybank Investment Bank Research analyst Moshin Aziz estimates MAS, which had indicated plans to focus on regional routes within the sphere of Asia and Australia, to terminate up to six international routes namely Paris, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Dubai and Kunming.
He also reckons that MAS to further cut or reduce another routes – Sydney, Melbourne, Darwin, Brisbane, Kochi and Osaka – as part of its restructuring plan.
"We estimate as many as 18-19 aircraft will need to be taken out of the fleet due to these route cuts alone. For MAHB, this is bad news as 2.2 million seats will vanish from its airports, all of which are international passengers that provide the highest revenue per pax," he said in his report last Thursday.

Originally posted by banuthev View PostMalaysia Airlines may cancel some European flights & reduce some Australia routes effective S15. As per my knowledge, in the codeshare agreement, one of the leg has to be operated by one of the codeshare partner. In this case MH doesn't operate direct flights to Doha so they can't codeshare on European destinations out of Doha using QR metal.
So I think it's a good chance for UL to launch direct flights to Australia!!

Originally posted by SLAA View PostAgreed, what I've always thought! This year and even last year, they had more Dutch nationals visit the country than Italians (where UL flies) and Switzerland (Where UL has been flying on an off). I am sure that by the end of 2016, KLM will announce flights to Sri Lanka. With its amount of connections it has within Europe and North America, it will be a successful, potentially more so than if UL commenced on the route.

Originally posted by banuthev View PostNot only maintanance I heard this bird has now been reconfigured with new seat configs 18/251. So all their A330s have the new interiors except on ALG. With an addition of brand new A333s do you think UL will become a 4 or 5 star airline anytime soon?
