Introduction on AirAsia:
The ‘it’ LCC
Low Fare Airlines in Asia?
Here’s one opinion:(Excerpt from the Speech By Mr. Richard Stirland, Director General of Association of Asia
Pacific Airlines at the ING Low Cost Airlines in Asia Conference 2003)
….. low cost airlines will be something we read about
rather than worry about. This might sound extremely
complacent, but my view is based on a close examination of the
facts, and I regret to say that many of those who, in the fashion
of St. John the Baptist, announce the imminent arrival of a
saviour in the form of Richard Branson or even Tony
Fernandes, appear either not to have considered the facts, all of
them, or to have formed a judgment and worked backwards to
use facts selectively to support their arbitrary conclusion …
2
Why he thought it won’t work…
 Tour packages still remains supreme – internet booking remains an exotic curiosity
 Travel agents’ loyalty to major airlines due to wide spread of services, destinations,
preferential rates to selected agents etc.
 Unsophisticated Traveler seeks sophistication of travel – cheap tickets but still expect frills
 Domestic market – taking passengers from trains, ferries & self drive whilst International
market – against established incumbents
 Geography – great distances fewer frequencies
 No critical mass to negotiate for lower prices
 Pay scale
 Lack of aircrew – forced to employ expensive expatriate
 Impossible for low cost operators to compete using service, simplicity, fares & summary
 Traffic rights – regulated environment
 …. And more

– Malaysia is surrounded by premium hubs (Singapore & Bangkok)
– gateway for the region (lowest cost, geographical, political stability)

(no strict visa requirements, transparent application process)
 How is FAX link up beneficial to AirAsia?
