Tentang kelip-kelip

Assalamualaikum...
Kelip-kelip? Serangga kelip2? Err.. Bukan.. Entry malam ni takde kena ngena dgn kelip-kelip yg berkerlipan itu ok.. Entry ini adalah tentang syarikat penerbangan komuniti anda.. Kelip-kelip!! Or "Firefly your community airline..."

We had the honour of flying with kelip2 on our way back from TGG to PEN bebaru ini.. It was the cheapest tickets available utk kami yg booking last minute.. But suffice to say, we are very impressed with our first experience flying in such a teeny-weeny plane.

Our flight was scheduled to fly out from TGG at 0820 and from SZB at 1245. I received a text message advising of our flight changes, from 0820 to 1120 hrs.. I guess there weren't that many people on both flights thus they combined the flights.. No problems at all.. It just means that we get extra hour of sleep that morning... Hahahah... But.. We'll be arriving in SZB at around 1220.., mana dan nak kejo flight 1245 ke PEN?? Ayoyo... Tapi.., nasib baik dlm sms tu ada call centre utk dihubungi.. So i called and sap-sap-soy our flight to PEN berjaya ditukarkan to 1445... Alhamdulillah.. The whole process took less than 10 minutes.., and she emailed me the new itinerary approx. 15 seconds after the call ended! Talk about excellent service!! Kalau dengan airasiamang?? I have to drive all the way to the airport and try to sort it out over the counter. Kalau counter dah tutup? Kena tunggu pulak esok pagi nak setel.. Knowing me yg berpenyakit suka panik tak tentu pasal dah tentu aku tabley tido malam tu.. Kudos firefly team!!

Experience dlm kapal plak.. Adoyai.. Sgt comel kapal nya.. Mcm kapal terbang mainan.. Tangga pun ada 5 steps je kot.. Terpikir plak muat ke JJ nak naik tangga kenit tu (sebenonye i takut i yg tak muat.., haha). There are about 24 rows of seats, 2 on each sides of the aisle.., with low ceilings.. Just nice utk org comel mcm i to walk thru.. JJ nye kepala just ngam2 nak touch the ceiling.. Crew punya kerusi slides in a false wall just in front of the cockpit door., bila xpakai dia bleh slide masuk tersorok..

Take-off was surprisingly smooth for such a small plane.. In-flight snack from TGG was a delicious almond cupcake and i asked for a cup of soya milk. Nyesal xmintak 2 cuppies sbb its really yummy!! JJ asked for a pack of peanuts which i end up eating..



Landed in SZB 10 minutes ahead of schedule smoothly.. Gila lama tak turun di Subang SkyPark (dulu T3 Subang airport kalau xsilap i).. Turun kapal jalan sket dah masuk dlm terminal.. Pick up luggage, check-in for our next flight n lepak di mcD.. I love subang skypark! Why? Sebab tak crowded mcm lcct.. Toilet tak kotor n busuk mcm lcct n boleh lepak makan guling2 dlm terminal dgn aman damai. Altho takde byk kedai tp i tak rasa menyampah mcm lcct yg byk kedai tp ramai manusia..

The flight to PEN was smooth as well.. Kali ni makan chocolate danish.. Sbb taknak kempunan, i asked for 2.., konon2 one for me and one for JJ tp i bedal both :) landed in penang on time jugak..



So begitulah cerita pengalaman i first time naik kelip2 aka FireFly your community airline.. We would definitely fly with u again!! Xmo dah support airasiamang unless dah takde option lain lagi..

Note: you can get really cheap fares on firefly if you book early.. Our flights cost us less than rm800 aritu.. Luggage check-in and all.. Tp flight time cuti sekolah bulan 3 nih dah xde promo fares dah.. Dem!!

  2. Waalaikumusalam sis..
    Bebaru ni one of my girlfrens flew on MASwings somewhere in s'wak.. Katanya semua penumpang dan luggage kena timbang sebab takut kapal berat sebelah!!! I dont know whether to laugh or to cry.. Kalau i dgn JJ dah tentu kena duk bucu kiri n bucu kanan.. Boleh tolong seimbangkan kapal.... Hahahahaahah :)
