Air Asia and Mas
Malaysia Airline (MAS) and Air Asia is the main air transport in Malaysia. The passengers of this two flight company are increasing every year. Their have also creates a lot of destinations to let the customers choose. I have chosen three articles for my reference. The first article is about interview of new Malaysia Airlines chief executive Azmil Zahruddin. “We are constantly monitoring our network and focusing on the religion that we feel will have high demand, and allow us to increase yields,” says Azmil (2010). He has ordered 35 aircraft and other 20 on option to increase the services and frequencies to destinations in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and North Asia including China, South Asia and Australia. He decided to introduce the new flight that will join the fleet at the start of 2011 to use for new routes such as London, Sydney and Amsterdam. Azmil also says: “The strategy behind the fleet renewal is to provide customers with the better products and match demand with capacity.”(2010) From the article we will know that Malaysia Airlines is always providing the better service to their customers. In my opinion, Malaysia Airline is introducing more routes but the price for the tickets has to be reasonable, because I think not all the people can accept the ticket’s price unless they are economy seat.

Second article is about Air Asia. Mr. Anthony Fernandes mortgaged his house to bought Air Asia together with friends and inventors. Now he has succeeded in bringing out the big companies. Air Asia is now the region’s largest low-cost operator, with a network of 122 routes. “I’ve had a lot more white hair in the process, but it has been worth it,” says Fernandes (2009). From the talk, we know how hardworking he is to meet his target. He introduces the low-cost fee of flight ticket that is acceptable by everyone. Based on what Fernandes (2010) said he is an aggressive entrepreneur, but Asian airport are slow to respond, and if anything

    The airline Industry is the one of the largest business in the world today. But like any other business it has its challenges. The first is the cost of running the airlines itself. An aircraft requires whole crews of engineers to maintain its functionality. And then there’s the market. Competition comes from various international airlines, each offering a d­ifferent route and different types of services. Those two factors comes to a conclusion: Any airlines who can offer less in terms of ticket pricing will win the market. This causes a new trend within the industry: The Low Cost Carriers. The new trend is highly popular for the new players who seeks to break into the Industry. By offering a price that is less than the current popular or flagship airlines, these new players profit from people who seek a cheaper way to fly. They usually operate within the domestic market of a country, using the country’s tourism as part of its marketing strategy. This creates a distortion within the airline industry. Other “full cost” airlines had no choice but to drop their prices or create a new branches that cater to that market segment in order to compete.…

    Airline Differentiation

    • Price is one of the most important differences that airlines would have among each other. Looking at Emirates that has competitive pricing to the rest of its rivals in similar service quality we can say that services of the airline would affect the difference in price among the airlines. This example shows us that Qatar Airlines as it is the first Five Star Airline that offers premium services would differ in price compare to Emirates. Customers can choose what quality of service they would receive according to the price they want to pay. That’s why we thing that airlines can be split in to three separate press categories according to the service they offer. Emirates would fit in the middle price category compare to Qatar Airlines which offers superior service for a superior price. The last category of price range we would consider Air Arabia as it has the minimum possible service but also has the lowest price range for varicose destinations (An example: Emirates offers return flight to Bangalore from 20th December till 23d December for 2640dhs., Qatar offers the same flight for 2350dhs, Air Arabia offers for 790dhs).…

    The author had chosen the tourism industry in Singapore. The reason for choosing this low cost carrier is because the author sees a growth in this industry for the next 12 months. Singapore national carrier - Singapore Airline (SIA) had recently announced its reduction in flight frequency in most routes as there is about 11% reduction in capacity across their network. SIA will be withdrawing service to Amritsar, India and Vancouver, Canada. The Associated Press (Prahok, 2009) reports that Asia’s budget airlines should benefit from bargain hunting travellers amid a global economic slowdown. The fallen of fuel prices by about 75 percent enables budget airline to keep tickets cheap. The author believes this would be able to attract many travellers to switch from travelling on the usual full service carriers to budget airline.…

    The fact that MAS have low labor costs, a function of a comparatively low cost of living in Malaysia, is perhaps the most important 'building block' and something that Malaysia Airlines must strive to maintain (Exhibit 1). Malaysia does not have the large base of business traffic enjoyed by neighbors to the south and therefore it will be difficult to match them on absolute revenue performance. To be competitive, MAS must maintain a cost advantage (The MAS Way, 2006).…

    Malaysia Airline should reduce the price of ticket to attract more passengers. Although the profit will be reduce, but the increase of the number of passengers will cover it back. In long term, it will bring more benefit to the company. Malaysia Airline also needs to have more promotion to attract the low income of passengers. For example, promote special ticket for a group of students or for family to travel during the school holiday. This is because during holiday, many of the students and family plan to have trip, special ticket for them will attract them travel by Malaysia Airline.…
