We Got Free Seats from AirAsia

Posted on the November 13th, 2008 under Traveling & Holidays by papabear

Yesterday AirAsia launched the Free Seats – No Fuel Surcharge promotion and we decided to grab the offer. We are not really a fan of AirAsia due to some of its ridiculous policies such as, express boarding fee and low baggage weight allowed but when they made such an offer, we would have to grab it since we know that when AirAsia is  on sale, it will be really on sale!

We managed to get free seats for the whole family, including Papa Bear’s mom for round trip travels from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta and from Jakarta to Surabaya. It is a dream come true for Mama Diah who has always wanted to bring her mother in law to her place in Jakarta and her hometown in Surabaya, Indonesia…

So, how much does it cost to get tickets for 4 people for a total of four trips? It is less than RM 800.00! That is approximately IDR 2.4 million or USD 230.00. A really awesome deal even though we have to wait until end of September 2009 for our trip. At least we have already planned for our next year’s annual family vacation.

The last we checked, there are still many seats available to all destinations!

What’s Hot? 15-10-2008

Posted on the October 15th, 2008 under News by papabear

Here are the hot news in Malaysia as of 12:00pm today. One of the hottest news today is about the reduction of the fuel price. The Malaysian government have reduced the fuel price following the trend of the global fuel price. Starting today, the RON 97 has dropped from RM 2.45 to RM 2.30 per liter. RON 92 and Diesel is now RM 2.20 per liter.

Despite the reduced price, many people feel that the it will have little or even no impact to the current situation in the country as the price of good, unfortunately, did not go down along with the fuel. That is the bad part as these people would increase the price of goods when the price of fuel goes up but are very reluctant to drop it once the fuel price has dropped.
