After a long time, I am back with another review...a review of another low cost international air line - Air Asia.
Our journey was marked during the Christmas break and as usual we did no book our tickets early and had to scramble for tickets. To keep it within my vacation budget, I started looking for cheap air tickets from Sydney to Kolkata and voila !.. there was Air Asia - It was cheaper by 40% from any other full benefit airlines in that route!

Having experienced a similar airline earlier (Scoot Review) I had my apprehensions.
But Air Asia turned out to be a surprise package - the winner for Air Asia was its food - It was delicious and served hot.
Now for some very subjective rating w.r.t. different aspects:
Seats: Comfortable
Service: Good
Price: Affordable
Food: Very good ! this was surprising - considering it was served hot and delicious as well!! - water still doesnot come free :(
Timeliness: Average- was delayed by an hour in the transit in KL.
I would say that other low cost airlines must take few cues from Air Asia to understand how a low cost airline can feel premium and at the same time can be affordable too.
