Air Asia X

...will start flying to the city of love 'PAREE' from next Valentine's Day, February 14, 2011. WoW!  Attractive date indeed and good "Shout Out"!  With four times weekly direct flights between Paris-Orly International Airport & KLIA's low cost carrier terminal (LCCT).  The new European destination after London will be serviced by the Airbus A340 (327 passenger capacity) and is offering  a promotional fare from RM499 = €99 = $160 one way. "Biar Betul! Murah giler tu...".  The promotional fares are available for booking online from 22Nov to 24 Nov (7am Malaysia)  hurry book now .  Hah! 22 Nov is tomorrow... get ready folks!

Air Asia X also flies to Tehran, Taipei, Seoul, Tokyo, China (Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu), Australia (Perth, Melbourne, Gold Coast) India (Mumbai, Delhi) and London...& now PARIS.  Impressive! However,  I have not been to any of Air Asia Flights before and honestly I've always been skeptical towards low cost carrier all these while. My 1st priority of traveling with airlines would be the COMFORT, from the airport check-in counter to the aircraft...etc etc.

I still remember my 'almost' 1st experience with Air Asia years ago when my former company decided to travel cheap and save up on the duty travel expenses, we were booked on Air Asia flights.  I was so pissed and  refused to travel on Air Asia.  I dunno, its just my feelings and perception towards the low cost carrier.  But I found out that my former CEO & even some of the top management team have had the experience traveling on Air Asia many times! Shame on me for acting like  a 'Diva'..wakkaka;-)

Now, I think with all the news coverage, success stories, encouraging reviews from the public bla..bla..in a way it sparkles a lil bit of trust or maybe the correct word is time for me to look up on Air Asia.  Even my own brother and his fiance used to travel with Air Asia both domestic & International, despite a few flight delays once or twice, overall they're pretty satisfied with the airline especially its value for money..."GREAT LOW FARES!"  Then again, they've chosen Air Asia to fly them to Gold Coast for their upcoming Honeymoon in Jan 2011!

The motto "Now Everyone Can Fly" well suited the airline and really has given lotsa opportunities to those who might not have a chance to get on a plane decades ago but now it has become reality to some people. An applause to Air Asia!!!

When talking about PAREE I'm all excited about the beautiful city, the never enough photos taken during our '9th Anniversary'n Honeymoon'  in 2008 (not so long ago, still fresh in mind) especially when looking at the magnificent Eiffel Tower...amazed, thrilled, satisfied, no perfect words can describe the real feelings "fuhhh tetiba ter-emo.."


We were there every single day during the 1 week trip...
just sit around at the park & admiring the Gigantic Tower in front of our eyes...
stayed there from as early as 4pm till its dark (daylight saving) around 10pm "barulah nak malam..tension woo:-("
but still patiently waiting for the beautiful lights ON the Eifel Tower...*full of love*


Accommodation wise, lots of affordable hotels in Paris we used to book through Octopus Travel click here but if you stay @ Hilton Paris, its definately heaven coz just 5mins walking distance to the Eiffel Tower....
  The precious momento...

As for transportation, the Paris Metro (Subway) is darn efficient (every 5 mins or less) connecting you from one place to another easily..no doubt its one of the World's Best...


The other beautiful & gorgeous monuments  in Paree....

Arc de Triomphe
Notre-Dame...
 
Musee de Louvre - most popular attraction, The Monalisa, the renowned and famous painting by Leonardo Da Vinci...

The Louvre Palace & Pyramids...

We also had the chance to see the tunnel & "memorial of a Princess" at Alma Marceau....


Lady Diana & Dodi Al-Fayed were killed in a car crash here..
(Pont de l'Alma tunnel  on Aug 31, 1997)
The flame (left) became an unofficial memorial for Diana, Princess of Wales...
Many flower bouquets & messages still surround the flame...

If I were to put all the photos here it would be the longest post ever or maybe never ending story. I gotta stop right here and makes you feel wanting to go to Paris this instance to see it for yourself;-) 

Parisians..! wait for more Malaysians to come to Paris and fly with Air Asia soon...! (free promo)
Oh..when can I say "Bonjour Paris" again? Fly with Air Asia this time??! A BIG question mark there "?"  Eheemmmm..."Malaysian Hospitality" *smiley*

Bon soir..
