yeah, air asia of course. and now with air asia x, there are more destinations to choose from.
and i have just snatched my first holiday trip next year for march!
i am going to gold coast, australia. i have been planning to stop travelling asia after that last trip to cambodia. i am just getting sick of listening to foreign languages and i feel like going to an english speaking country! need to feel that familiarity for a change.
i was planning for perth, you know, it is the nearest english speaking city and should be the cheapest to go to.
luckily air asia x is promoting their new destination and one way ticket is only rm350. without hesitation i smsed people i know who could fit my travel schedule lah. none replied wor!!! except dear brother who was deciding between cambodia in december and this trip. finally he chose my trip and this will be our first trip together! ok, someone said going with brother was no fun, but hey, at least it is better than going alone lah. my housemate smsed me too late (after i had booked) so i told her to look for her own travel mate lah if she wanted to go. sorry mate. you need to be fast here.
after adding everything, my return tickets cost me rm1590. there are so many hidden charges ah. i chose a night flight for my going journey, so instead of 350, i have to pay 418. then the airport taxes. insurance is 29. meals on board- 20 for each way (vegetarian, kids, asian, or western). haha..i was thinking of choosing kids meal. but in the end we chose asian and western lah. ok, then 20 (one way) to choose a standard seat in the plane. no standing zone here. haha. those with more legroom seat, you pay 100. i think am the first one to choose my seats in that flight. super kiasu syndrome. it is a 2-4-2 seating arrangement. i chose the 2 seats on the left. then lastly, another 20 (one way) to check in luggage. that 20 is only for 1-15kg. 16kg and above you have to pay 100 already.
so it all ends up at 1590. it is the cheapest one can get to gold coast. now just hope there is no such thing as cancellation of flight.
we hope sis in australia can get some leave and meet us there too. it is going to be a siblings trip. now we have to save for our expenses and find our lodging and plan our itenary there. anyone know of any cheap place to stay?? any free couch to offer? i read there is this progamme where ppl offer their couches for free for short stay. haha...i can consider this.
a part-time job in november and december is in the card now. but where do i start looking? tell me yeah, if you know any vacancies. hehe.
