Anyone flown with these guys? I'm thinking of a cheap getaway from Santstead > KL > Melbourne.

check the fees - booking fee, luggage fees, meal fees, blanket fee, IFE fee. Add them onto the quoted fare. It's cheaper to book the legs separately I believe (London-KL return costs a little more than London-KL plus KL-London)

Add them all up and compare with a fare from ebookers/lastminute on London-Melbourne (typically you can get a free stopover for the same price as the London-Melbourne fare).

I use this site when picking seats, but AirAsia doesn't seem to be an option.

Is it a new name?

I used to fly with them quite a lot on short haul hops from Singapore to KL and Bangkok.

Not bad, fairly comfortable leather seats, cute air hostesses, but as it was short haul you can't really compare it with long haul
