Company that use low-cost provider such as Air Asia. How does Air Asia could manage to offer cheaper airfares? Because Air Asia not provides insurance, luggage, potter, passenger cannot choose seat, and has cut many operational cost. Air Asia also is the first company who use online check in and booking, thus this can decrease cost to pay for workers. In addition to that, air asia is really implement customer customize by ‘’ when you want, you need to pay, if you do not want, so doesn’t’’. this is several term practice by Air Asia.
This is totally different with MAS. There are to many operational cost such as buy high quality frame to put in office with high price. This is because they want luxury and what called as self-contentment. Furthermore, MAS choose catering ‘Berahim’ sibling of the previous prime minister Abdullah Badawi and pay with higher cost.
