MIRI, March 17 — Malaysia Airlines must not practice dynamic pricing arbitrarily across the board as it has a national duty to promote domestic tourism, thereby promoting national integration between the various states and races and regions, said former Bukit Mas MP Datuk Mutang Tagal.
“Just because other airlines practice dynamic pricing in determining the pricing of their tickets especially during peak seasons like school holidays, festivals and important occasions, it does not mean that MAS, MASwings and Firefly should follow suit blindly without considering its impact on rural, domestic and international travels,” he said.
He said the Malaysian government subsidises MASwings to operate the rural air service in Sarawak and Sabah so that airfares from the major towns to rural settlements, villages, longhouses there are kept low and affordable to the rural people. He said capping the passengers in the Twin Otter to a maximum of nine per flight has become a sore point among travellers from rural villages and the tourism sector.
