Long time lurker, first time poster. Not sure if this would be the right place to post this rock-bottom priced fare considering plenty of members here are avid mileage runners flying J/F and would probably anguish at the thought of flying an LCC long haul. For those who are budget-conscious like me, (a 17 yo first-year law student working at Subway haha), flying to KUL with AirAsia is essentially cheaper than to PER with QF! A side trip to BOM and PEN is only an extra few ringgits, so I'm headed there aswell. :mrgreen: Also, Tune Group Hotels are currently offering rooms in Downtown Kuala Lumpur for around $15 AUD a night. So if you're considering an ultra budget trip, it's an excellent proposition.

Thats a great deal.

My problem is not with the airline, it's with planning 1 year ahead. I just can't do that. I often book 3 days before I go, my plans constantly change.

If I could get a fare next week at that price, Id probably take it... but I find Air Asia is pretty expensive at short notice,whereas you can often get SQ/TG fares at the same price for the following day as it was if you booked 3 months in advance.

We had a stoppover in KL on our way to London for a few days, the money you save on the flight to Malaysia you can spend on a very nice 5 Star hotel or huge 4-4.5 Star room/apartment. Traders hotel goes well

well we all gotta start somewhere, and sounds like your head is screwed on right if you're sussing out good deals now that suit your needs/budget

thx for the heads-up.
