AirAsia to remove processing fee for credit card, online banking payments

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

They used to have ridiculously cheap fares in quiet periods. Fare sometimes cheaper than the taxes.
But a few years ago they put a minimum prices on tickets. Still cheap if you surf the dates, but never almost free as before.
They seemed to have tweaked the algorithms pretty well tho, as you say Tim, the flights are pretty full these days.
Phnom Penh to Bangkok they used to be the cheapest if you could book ahead And fly hand luggage only, But on my last two trips Lanmei beat them on price And offered the convenience of BKK over DMK (train).

It's worth it - just to carry that smug smile while everyone else is looking so resentful.
Care to enlighten us as to how?
OK Cruise, but afterwards you gotta give me some tips on stowing away on one of your cruisesliners. Deal?

I just started writing the instruction manual but I am not very good at keeping anything simple. Give me a day or so.
keenly awaiting your manual...

I'm an AirAsia fanboy because the airline brought real competition to Australian skies. Prior to their arrival we were paying $700-$1000 return to Bali from Perth, the trip can now be had for $260. Yes, they can be low on service and they try to squeeze every dollar out of you for anything other than the basic fare, but, well, I'm happy to put up with that because without their introduction we from the land down under would still be getting screwed over for ridiculous airfares into Asia and across our sunburned country.

Yours Truly
AirAsia Fanboy
