Any guess for why CMB-TRZ is doing good ? because of Baggage allowance and no guesses on how MJ is flying with a full-house ..
BTW, Mihin's website's tag line is Cheap flights to Dhaka, Colombo and Jakarta with "FREE MEALS AND BAGGAGE .. "
Then again, I can't figure out how they price SIN-CMB-SIN, at 2048 S$ - virtually more than twice UL's fare .. are they on a mission to discourage traffic ex-Singapore, to cover up the cargo space ?

Goodnews ! But it's also disappointing TK has given less priority for the CMB flights as schedule loaded only 25 days before the starting date. Still no announcement on TK website and on the Media. Anyway @4R-SRD - Do you find TK's CMB fares are attractive ? @Spookyflyer & Uthum - Any idea about the cabin configuration for TK's A330/A340 ? Do they have first class operating for CMB flight ?
ya that is true .they hvnt given much priority to cmb. They will targt mle also. And the current promotional fare is ok but in next weeks we will be able to rcv special ethnic fares from Italy. Let u knw .
Thanks
