Not Your Typical Tourist

A Life Between Two Countries, And All In Between

AirAsia’s Adhoc Seating Allocation Policy … YET again!

6 passengers in one booking. 5 adults and 1 child.

And they allocated the one and only child in my booking, to be seated all by herself.

Very smart, AirAsia. Very smart indeed.

It’s time to give your system a radical overhaul, no? I am starting to sound like a broken record, having experienced the same problem before, read here and here. And this is coming from an aunt, I emphatize with all the parents out there .. their agony and the additional fee they had to fork out, for this system flaw.

As the rest of us (aka the adults) have been allocated Row 10, if I were to change the child’s seat, it’ll cost me additional RM 10.60. No, I ain’t giving you that additional revenue.  Hmph.

Not Your Typical Tourist

A passionate advocate for independent and solo travel, I traded life in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, for the vibrant streets of Bangkok, Thailand. This shift is all thanks to a "chance encounter" in 2009 that led to marriage with my Thai husband. I currently split my time between Bangkok (my main base) and Kuala Lumpur for family—documenting the unique blend of a Malaysian life lived abroad.
