I pretty much use AirAsia exclusively because they're always the cheapest to where I fly, so I probably don't have much of a basis for comparison. But, if what AirAsia offers, other than price, is regarded as the worlds best and has been for a decade, I dread to think what it's like flying with the competition.
PARIS: AirAsia has been named the World's Best Low-Cost Airline for the ninth time in a row at the 2017 Skytrax World Airline Awards.

The awards, known as the "Oscars of the aviation industry", was presented to Asia's largest low-cost carrier at a ceremony held at Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace, Le Bourget Airport in Paris on Tuesday.

I've flown the main (Malaysian) AirAsia a lot. And I'd be happy to fly Thai AirAsia. But I would not fly Indonesian AirAsia ever.

Actually I read just today Tony Fernandez has dropped plans for flights to mainland US and UK and they will stick to flights under 9-10 hours duration. He said they will let the full service airlines fight it out on price on the longer routes. Probably a wise strategy.

Apart from being cheap and (usually) punctual, the added bonus of Thai AirAsia is that most of their air hostesses are smoking hot :thumb:
