OUTSYED THE BOX
Air Asia International (AAX) is
facing serious problems on some of its international routes. And so
they are cutting "unprofitable" routes. The latest being AAX axing its
Christchurch run. Please read here.
"In
January, AAX said it would stop flying to London, Paris, New Delhi and
Mumbai. It is learnt that AAX is moving away from long-haul to
medium-haul flights."
The first question that pops up now is what is Air Asia going to
do with all those hundreds of Airbuses they have just placed on order at
the Paris Air Show in June last year? Just how many planes did they
order? Well read here. Air Asia ordered 200 planes plus an option for 100 more. Cost : RM54 billion. Whoever the Airbus salesman, agent, middleman was, he, she, they or it made some huge commissions.
