<div class="head"><span class="headline hl3">Air Asia history</span></div>
<p>Air Asia was established in 1993 and commenced its operations on 18th November 1996. This airline
was
originally founded by a government owned conglomerate DRB-Hicom. However, on 2nd December 2001,
the
heaviliy indebted airline was purchased by former Time Warner executive Tony Fernandess company
Tune Air Sdn Bhd for the token sum of one ringgit. Fernandes proceeded to engineer a remarkable
turnaround, turning a profit in 2002 and launching new routes from its hub in KLIA at breakneck
speed which undercutting former monopoly operator Malaysia Airlines with promotional fares as
low as
one ringgit.
In 2003, AirAsia has opened a second hub at Senai International Airport in Johor Bahru, which is
near Singapore. And, it launched its first international flight to Bangkok. AirAsia has
therefore
started a Thai subsidiary, added Singapore to the destination list, and it commenced flights to
Indonesia. Also, flight to Macau was started in June 2004 and flight to Mainland China and the
Philippines started in April 2005. In addition, the flight to Vietnam and Cambodia is in the
year
2005 while to Brunei and Myanmar is in 2006.
With a strong yet simple slogan “Now Everyone Can Fly”, AirAsia has effectively placed its brand
in
customers mind when comes to selection of flight. In Malaysia, AirAsia is the second powerful
national airline. Also, it was the first successful low cost and ticket-less airline in the
Southeast Asian region. It is main based in the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) at Kuala Lumpur
International Airport (KLIA). And, AirAsia has a registered office in Petaling Jaya, Selangor
and
its head office is on the grounds of KLIA in Sepang, Selangor. In addition, AirAsia is one of
the
successful businesses that have adopted cost leadership thoroughly through effectiveness and
efficiency of the operation management. AirAsia has broken the travel norms around the world
speedily and has become the worlds top airline. Beside this, AirAsia also has a route network
that
spans more than 20 countries; therefore it continues to pave the way for lower cost aviation
through
innovative solutions, more efficient processes and a passionate approach to the business.
The vision of AirAsia is to be the largest cost airline in Asia and for the purpose of serving
the 3
billion people who are currently underserved with poor connectivity as well as high fares. There
are
4 missions such as to be the best company to work for where the employees are treated as part of
the
big family in AirAsia, to create a ASEAN brand which is being recognized globally, to attain the
lowest cost to make sure everyone in the world can fly with AirAsia, and to maintain the highest
quality product by embracing technology in order to reduce cost and enhance the service levels
of
AirAsia.
Apart from that, together with the associate companies such as AirAsia X, Thai AirAsia and
Indonesia
AirAsia, AirAsia is set to take the low cost flying. AirAsia X was established in 2007 in order
to
provide high frequency as well as point to point networks to the long haul business. Its cost
efficiencies are derived from maintaining a simple aircraft fleet and a route network based on
low
cost airports. Hence, guests will continue to enjoy the low fares through cost savings that
AirAsia
pass on to the guests. Moreover, AirAsia X franchises the brand name of AirAsia, Asias largest
low
cost carrier which uses a common ticketing website, uniform, uniforms, and management style with
AirAsia. AirAsia X is also affiliated with Virgin Group and Air Canada.
AirAsia operates over 200 flights a day, to over 75 domestic and international routes covering
Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, Myanmar, the Peoples Republic of China,
Vietnam,

provided
by AirAsia which is AirAsia and AirAsia X. AirAsia is an offer for passenger that fly around

Plan AirAsias CEO Tony Fernandes unveiled a five-year plan to further enhance its presence in
Asia.
In the plan, AirAsia will strengthen and enhance its route network by connecting all the
existing
cities in the region and expanding further into Indochina, Indonesia, Southern China (Kun Ming,
Xiamen, Shenzen) and India.
The airline will focus on developing its hubs in Bangkok and Jakarta through its sister
companies,
Thai AirAsia and Indonesia AirAsia. Hence, with increase frequency and addition of new routes,
AirAsia expects passenger volume to hit 18 million by end-2007. On 27 March 2006, the Government
of
Malaysia announced that AirAsia will take over 96 non-trunk routes, in addition to 19 domestic
trunk
routes. This was part of Malaysia Airlines route rationalization programme which saw a large
number
of its domestic sectors being transferred to AirAsia from 1 August 2006.
On September 27, 2008, AirAsia has on its list 106 new routes to be added to its current list of
60
over the next few years. Technology AirAsia widely utilises the Internet as a booking and
payment
channel. Its website at www. airasia. com allows guests to book and pay for seats, check flight
schedules, and acquire information about the airline. About 45% of AirAsias business is done
through Internet sales. It also became the first airline in the world to offer a multilingual
website that comes in six languages: English, Bahasa Malaysia, Mandarin, Tamil, Thai and Bahasa
Indonesia.</p>

<div class="head"><span class="headline hl3">Airasia and Tata</span></div>
<p>AirAsia is one of the first foreign airline to set up a subordinate airline industry in India.
The
company marked the Tata Group's return to the aviation industry.
 AirAsia India is a joint venture (JV) between the Tata group and Malaysia-based AirAsia Berhad
AirAsia group. Where the Tatas own 51% stake and the remaining 49% is with AirAsia Bhd. The
Malaysian airline group, which has been reporting losses, reportedly approached the Tatas in
June to
sell its part of the stake. The offer was refused by Tata Sons.
Even the AirAsia India is floundering to achieve a reversal of policy, having gained profits
only
for a single quarter since it began operations six years ago. Tata Sons, the other JV partner
with a
51 per cent stake, has so far made no money out of it. 
There are also suppositions that Tata is planning to consolidate its exiting stake in AirAsia
with
Air India into a single enterprise. It is also important to mention that the national carrier
started as a division of Tata Sons Ltd in 1932 and was run as 'Tata Airlines' till 1946, after
which
it became a public limited company, renamed as Air India due to nationalization.
From Tata Airlines and Air India to Vistara and AirAsia India, the Tata group has always been an
important part of the growing aviation sector in India.</p>

<div class="head"><span class="headline hl3">Airasia safety issue</span></div>
<p>Flying Beast Gaurav Taneja who got suspended from job as a pilot, after he raised his voice
publically on some flight safety issues in AirAsia Airlines. AirAsia India is under governor
probe
for reportedly violation of safety practices. The move comes to light a day after aviation
regulator
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). It is the statutory body formed under the
Aircraft
(Amendment) Bill, 2020. DGCA sent a show-cause notice to AirAsia India's Head of Operations,
Manish
Uppal. 
Mr Taneja in his YouTube video has explained the safety issues of AirAsia India. Taneja also
tweeted
"So good to see that #AirAsia has not yet come up with a statement “WE ARE NOT UNSAFE”.
The violations are related to safety protocols, ignorance of The Directorate General of Civil
Aviation circulars on covid-19 safety of passengers, ignorance of sick leaves of pilots and
pressurising pilots to use flap 3 landings in a way to save fuel 98% of time.
Taking knowledge of that, the DGCA had Tweeted on June 15 “DGCA has taken note of the concerns
raised by some stakeholders against a particular airline and its approach to safety. DGCA has
already started an investigation into the issues flagged and shall take appropriate action based
on
the outcome of the said investigation.”</p>

<div class="head"><span class="headline hl3">Gaurav Taneja allegation on Air Asia</span></div>
<p>In June this year, one of AirAsia Indias former pilot who runs a YouTube channel called Flying
Beast. Gaurav Taneja, who has, first raised safety issues at AirAsia through a tweet on June 13,
though he didnt disclose any details. Gaurav Taneja was terminated by the airline on Friday.
Taneja
tweeted the same around midnight on Monday he tweeted “I was terminated from AirAsia for raising
safety issues! Now, the same issues are raised by DGCA to Air Asia India. Justice will
prevail!”.
This comes a fortnight after he was suspended from the airline.
Soon after Tanejas termination, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), on Sunday,
issued
a showcause notice to a senior executive of AirAsia India over Tanejas allegations of violation
of
safety norms. A DGCA official said that the showcause notice has been served after the pilot's
allegations. "AirAsia India confirms receipt of the notice and we are assisting the regulator in
its
fact-finding process. We will fully cooperate with the regulator," said an AirAsia India
spokesperson.
In his video on June 14, however, he made several allegations with respect to the violation of
safety norms by the airline. He alleged that he was made to work on his off days and said that
putting sick pilots in the cockpit is risky. When he escalated this to the chief of the safety
of
the airline, he allegedly wrote back that he undergo lifestyle counselling and medical tests
again.
He also alleged that protocols, that were in place in March when coronavirus was spreading, were
not
followed properly by the airline (although he does not outline which), and stated that from
March 24
onwards, he refused to fly.
He also alleged that the airline asks its pilots to do 98% of landings in "Flap 3" mode, which
allows it to save fuel. Failing to do this is considered a violation by the airline, he alleged.
Flaps are part of wings of an aircraft and they are engaged to create a drag during a landing or
a
take-off.
After this, Amit Singh, the former Chief of Safety at AirAsia India, also tweeted that he
resigned
with just a days notice and refused to work with the company because the company allegedly
asked
him to hide safety issues. “As the Chief of Flight Safety of AirAsia India after launch, I
resigned
and left with 1 days notice. I refused to work for them for a minute after they asked me to
hide
safety related issues. Such is the safety culture there. They accused me of working for
@DGCAIndia
instead of them,” he tweeted.
Soon after this DGCA took note of the concerns raised and began investigating the airline.</p>

<p>Air Asia has been on a drift from years, due to different reasons as company going in loss and so
on.
These time are already tough due to the prevailing pandemic. Various services are suffering a
huge
loss and so is Air Asia.
Recently the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) suspended Captain Manish Uppal, the
Head
of Operations, Air Asia and Captain Mukesh Neema, Chief of Flight Safety, Air Asia, on safety
violations by Air Asia. Taneja's allegations regarding the safety as the company sent sick pilot
on
work and instructed pilots to do "flap 3" in order to save fuel.  Registered allegations says
that
the low-cost carrier violates safety norms and puts the lives of its pilots, crew and all the
passengers at risk.
In June, the DGCA took note of the complaints raised by a number of stakeholders and started an
investigation into the reported issues. The aviation regulator said it will "take appropriate
action
based on the outcome of the said investigation".
However, the aviation watchdog has received criticism for announcing a short-term suspension of
the
carrier's top brass as compared to the suspension of the pilot.
Also, DGCA mentioned that AirAsia India was under investigation after Taneja's allegations.</p>

<p>The youtuber who raised his voice against the safety issues of passengers in Air Asia Mr. Gaurav
Taneja also a pilot by profession alleged in his youtube video that, "the AirAsia airline by
which
we travel is unsafe." Initially he said when we ask for sick leave it is counted as off day.
"Pilots
do fear asking for a sick leave, as it may lead to punitive action," The punitive action may be
in
the form of a lower bonus.
"On any other job, one could go to work despite feeling a bit under the weather. As a pilot, I
can't
afford to do that," says the pilot. 
Secondly, he talked about standard operating procedure (SOPs) not being followed. Though he
doesn't
get into the details on which SoPs were not being followed.
Lastely he talked about landing issues. Flap 3 or Flap 4.
The purpose of the flaps is to generate more lift at slower airspeed, which enables the airplane
to
fly at a greatly reduced speed with a lower risk of stalling. This is especially useful during
takeoff and landing.
A no-flaps landing is done in the conditions of strong or gusty winds. 
Flap 3 is more preferred as it saves fuel which is the reason why nearly all airlines advise
their
pilots to use this mode of landing, rather than Flap 4.
But the AirAsia airline has asked its pilots to do 98 per cent of landings in "Flap 3" mode,
which
allows it to save fuel. He said if a pilot does not do 98 per cent of landings in "Flap 3" mode,
the
airline considers it a violation of its standard operating procedure or also denoted as SOP.</p>

<div class="head"><span class="headline hl3">Way forward for Air Asia</span></div>
<p>AirAsia is the first subordinate aviation industry in India. Ever since its launch, AirAsia India
has
been involved in one controversy or the other.
Now this is being speculated Tata is planning to merge its exiting stake in AirAsia with Air
India
into a single entity. After all the controversial draught of being in loss, not treating
employees
in a proper decorum and risking passengers life in order to save fuel have brought a negative
impact
on industries goodwill.
It can be said that this is going to be a tough task to regain customers trust and reputation.
For
this the company will have to stick to all the safety norms according to the aviation industry.
And
also taking all the precautionary measures during the pandemic. 
AirAsia will have to prioritise the safety of the passengers and the crews. Also, to create a
healthy working environment where the employees won't fear to ask for leave during emergency and
make sure that they are not finding the job as a burden.</p>
