AirAsiaX Airbus 330-300 is more suited for up to 5 or 7 hours travel. It would not be suitable for destinations further if a refuel stop is needed. Mr Tony Fernandez has made a mistake and not going a wide body aircraft from Boeing say the Dreamline or 777 or the airbus Wide Body. Apart from the 777, the other aircraft will put AirAsiaX into a alter ego and will have to wait till 2010 for newer aircraft. Mr Fernandez is a man in a hurry and making mistakes. Mr Fernandez had not done his homework in asking the public if they prefer a stop over in Dubai for 2 hours. Emirates and Qatar and Gulf Air are more superior that AirAsia with the same flight configuration. Most will say no with respect ot the fares AirAsiaX will charge. Passengers will abandone AirAsiaX shortly. Co- habitating with Branson is another mistake by Tony Fernandez. Much of his avaition successes will not shine with Branson who will steal the limelight from a Red BaseBall Wearing Fernandez which actually kills his media profile. Sad to say. AirAsia strategy is price and discomfort.
