Recapping the lost revenue

oldie but goldie…saw this at airline world

Panasowha?

No prizes for correctly guessing what is wrong with the latest panasonic ad.

Can you spot the difference(s)? i sure the hell can't!

here is my advise to panasonic marketing agency : if you are going to produce a comparison ad, make one where consumers like me can actually tell the difference!

Note: My apologies to THESTAR for using this image. without permission. yes. i did. I will remove this if you tell me to. maybe not.

Cathay Pacific

Recently i flew from HK to Penang on MAS. However, as sometimes airlines do coach share, i ended up on a cathay pacific plane instead. I am not sure if you are aware but travelling with hong kongers/hong kies is always a surprise to me. Especially when you are boarding a plane. USUALLY, most flight companies have a system of ushering people into the plane  : 1) elderly, family with kids, people with special needs followed by 2) passengers seated at the back of the plane and lastly everyone else.

HOWEVER, when you travel with hong kies/Hong Kongers, they will just end up lining up, regardless!!so even if you are an old lady or family with kids, you still have to line up!i will upload a pic of this once i manage to find it!! !@##$%

My main topic of this post,is not about that. Its more about Cathay Pacific cabin attendants/cabin crews/air stewardess. Lately i find that most of the younger female cabin crews are not very polite or provide a friendly face in the sky for weary travellers like me. Most often than not, they are just there to serve you food and drinks. eye contact? forget it! smile to you when they talk to you ? forget it! When you are travelling after an exhausting business trip or holiday, all you want is a comfortable flight home and friendly service, dont you?

so i decided to write a comment on my flight to Cathay Pacific and i went to their website and guess what ? they dont have a email for customers to write to!! AMAZING!

I guess i have to write a letter and then fax it to them....perhaps i will just print this post and fax it to them....

In this day and age, cathay pacific actually has a pretty good website and even web check in and iphone app, but they have an email for customers like myself to send comment to? wow. I wonder why??

What about you? do you think an email response mechanism/process is just something so simple that a big company such as Cathay Pacific should have? drop me a comment.

Just Phuket!

I supposed if our advertising agencies in malaysia isnt bound by so many restrictions, perhaps we will see creative ads such as this…

Msia Airport Express train VS HK Airport Express train

yeah, what a farking long title!

anyways – ive been travelling a lot recently bcos of work and this brings to various countries and i get to experience how things work everywhere else. One interesting thing that i noticed early is our train service from city to the airport.

In Malaysia, you have to take the KLIA Express, which travels from KL sentral to the airport in 28min. It costs RM35 one way which is cheap, compared to HK (RM50 one way). If you have ever board KLIA express, you will noticed that the amount of space allocated for luggages is really limited to certain quarters only. If you are travelling with big luggages, you will face problem like the pic below

yeah, see that? you have lift up your 20kg luggages up to the "special compartment"

Compare this with HK’s Airport express :

See? easy peasy and there are at least another 3 spots like this for tourist like me to put my big bags!

The other nice touch about HK Airport express is the big LCD screen they put up and a destination indicator, so people know where they are and when they can drop off.

location/destination indicator...pretty cool

big lcd screen so you dun have to squint your eyes out

oh yeah, HK Airport express also have 1 to 2 QUIET cabins, where the LCD tvs and trains do not have any speakers playing music or anything else, which is a nice touch.

MAS Delayed again?

Posted: Monday , Jul 27, 2009 at 0216 hrs New Delhi:

Around 274 passengers bound for Singapore and Kuala Lumpur on a Malaysian Airlines flight had to wait at the Indira Gandhi International Airport on Saturday night as the flight was delayed by over 24 hours.

The flight, scheduled to take off at 11 pm on Saturday, could not take off initially due to a problem with the windscreen. After a delay of three-and-a-half hours, however, when the aircraft did take off, it had to return under emergency conditions due to a technical snag. The passengers had to wait at the airport till morning, after which they were shifted to nearby hotels.

The flight had not taken off till the filing of this report.

The pilot of the Delhi-Singapore-Kuala Lumpur MH 0191 flight noticed a problem with the windscreen after all passengers had boarded the aircraft on Saturday. The Air Traffic Control was then informed, airport sources said.
