Yap, I had pre-book my flights during CNY 2010 with RM 99 all inclusive per sector; yeah. Pretty cheap fares during such peak seasons. Hope no change or amendment occurs (In fact cannot have also, haha...).

Bye bye!

Erm......simply something

Well, after the absolute "cross roads"; guess in the end still need to choose the initial choice --- Sunway KL for my ACCA tuition. I had go and fill up the enrollment form already, just that haven't asked my parents to countersign and pay for the miscell fees payable yet. Probably need a few more days to think it deep again. But then anyway, guess no more changes...

Intake will be on 2th July, guess most likely will fly over on the earlier weekend, which is 27th June...now another thing I need to figure out is when to move in to the hostel...maybe a Monday, 29th June; I think. haha...

Will be back to Brunei in a few more days to come for another two months...

Guess that's all from me now.

Bye bye!

Economic downturn VS Air tickets

Well, today's United Daily (formerly known as Miri Daily) do a report about air tickets...informing that not only normal people (means citizens) cannot stand MAS tickets being inflated for 2.5 times over time of three years for most of the route...the well known people (erm...public figures) also voice the same thing (That's what's being shown on the papers)....

Erm...well to me, it is true that the price does sound funny as I think it's only our national carrier in this region who impose 4 types of fare on the same class of travels...But then with the promotional "low fares" sincelast year, travelling with full service carrier has been quite valuable already, just that may be the in cabin pressure not that nice...

So, what's related with downturn in economy? Well, in theory, demand less by supply in excess will result in low prices while high demand with reasonable supply will push up the prices...That's what economy teach us traditionally...which means if this downturn eventually recovered, everyone can expect the prices will back to normal, regardless of what industry...as people have the power to spend again...

But then, may be high priced tickets not so welcomed already by then as people had been always expecting low fares for a long time...well,that's what is being expected...

Let's see what we got for the upcoming Monday as the report says the national carrier is going to have a joint promotion with those travel agents...Yap pi!

For those who want to go for London this Sunday, Book NOW for only MYR 549 all inclusive on MAS!! Is funny to have last minute tickets on such as low price, good job MAS!

Guess that's all for now!

BYE BYE!

SEE YA!

HAHA!

Cross roads....

Well, it had been a week more after being backed from Kuching trip; still in deep consideration about where to go....Hai...headache lo.....

Seriously, pening....need to think twice before came about to the final decision....

Well, Guess this is the only thing to paint for the time being...

See ya!

Kuching trip...

As mentioned before, the tickets for this trip were being bought during MAS second weekend special promotion. As a result, I managed to get a return tickets for only MYR 78, which is definitely VERY VERY worthwhile.

The outbound chosen was at 1420, but then at 1000; we receive a call stating that the flight was being called off, probably due to some faulty on the aircraft system.
They then arrange for my father and I to be on board of the evening flight, which is the same time slot as that was chosen for my KL outbound last year. The 1 hour flight was good, with pleasant taking off and landing. But then the pilot seems flying at a slightly low altitudes...

As the time upon arrival was night already,nothing much can be done other than having dinner and check in for hotel. Yap, booked tunehotel online in advance; but then sadly, the price that we got seems is of a little bit high...

The hotel is really no frills, what you have is simply a queen size beds, a toilet roll and shower. Any other things that you wish to use will be all payable. And believe it or not, due to the fact that it was new; there were NO TV and laundry services being made available (although customers expect that it is chargeable)...It is as typical as those available at Genting Highlands, with the primary aim being sleeping only...but then Genting one still got TV as complementary...this one you cant find a TV at all...

Went straight to Sunway College Kuching the next day morning. The marketing manager gave a brief introduction on course on enquiry and some other miscellaneous issues...As an overall impression, the environment there is much more peaceful that those in KL...looks more "Sarawakian", hehe...

Anyway, the lecturing time is not that good; most of the courses well be taught at night...which is not that charming as the hostel are opposite of a BIG BIG roads (literally means a wide roads, which have at least six lanes in totals). The one exactly behind the college (which is normal household) is hard to book according to that manager as the places being made available in those household is limited...well, well, well, with this particular point, the evaluation is really hard...

After that, went off for shopping. Go for The Spring & Boulevard Kuching on the daytime while go for Riverside shopping mall on the night time. The next day went for Tun Jugah with my secondary classmate who had moved back to Kuching since late 2001...have chat at coffee house. But then, Tun Jugah is not an ideal shopping complex, you can buy much from there (which means the range of products available are not much)...

Afternoon before bound for KIA, went around a satellite town in Kuching...then heading straight to KIA for inbound...The inbound started boarding quite fast (I mean the turnaround time is quite short)...The plane started to left KIA at 4.30 sharp...again, the flying team is good; but then the weather at central Sarawak is not that good during cruising time...windy day with plane shaking a little...the pilot had choose to fly high up for this one hour...touch down about 5 minutes earlier than the scheduled time.

With that, here is the snapshots of the trip; tough is only a few...:



The landmark for Kuching...Cat's...



Side view of Sarawak Plaza...



The bed of the hotel...

That's all, bye bye!
