AirAsia’s group CEO Tony Fernandes says bureaucratic policies have let the Malaysian Aviation Commission down.
“In other words, Mavcom is rejecting applications on bilaterally unrestricted routes. This is a blatantly unfair practice,” he posted on LinkedIn, a social media platform geared towards professionals. “This is an unnecessary burden for passengers who collectively are paying close to RM30 million a year to cover the operating costs of a regulator who does not represent their best interest,” he said.
“These include, frequent unplanned runway closures, uneven aprons and taxiways, and a poor airport design that requires long walks to gates and subsequent delays for passengers trying to get to their flights.”“In October 2019, Mavcom will announce the new PSC rates which were developed in accordance with the Regulated Asset Base framework.
Fernandes said the low-cost carrier segment has grown by an average of 16%, close to triple the growth of full-service carriers and accounting for 50% share of air travel in Asean.
