Overall I would satisfy on MAS new A330-300 but I was hoping that their Business Class seat can be reclined more. MAS A330 are better than Singapore Air A330-300 from my point of view. Except changing aircraft from Boeing 777-200 to A330-300 it is not a good idea because A330-300's Economy class are smaller at 32" as compared with 34" on 777-200. Forget about business class seat, as the new Business class are better.
Boeing 737-800 Malaysia Airlines are great except their seats on Economy class are so small at 30" as compared with other mainstream airlines such as Garuda Indonesia (31-32"), Thai Airways (31") and Singapore Airlines (32").
If I'm not mistaken that MAS new A380 Business class are great but the seats can't recline more than A380 of Qantas Airways. What a shame for 5 Star airlines that can't beat 4-star airlines such Qantas, Garuda Indonesia and Thai Airways in terms of seat size and degree of reclining.

Firefly is negotiating for additional ATR 72-500s to be delivered gradually till 2015 to fuel its expansion into more secondary routes to continuously strengthen its network, according to MD Datuk Eddy Leong.
The community airline had now a total of 12 ATR 72-500 aircraft, after taking delivery of two recently, he said in a statement yesterday.
The two additional aircraft would be used to strengthen Firefly's current network footprint through increased frequency for high demand sectors such as to Langkawi, Penang, Johor Baru and Singapore from Subang, the statement said.
Firefly currently flies to 10 domestic and seven regional destinations with its fleet of ATR, with a total of 324 flights a week.

Malaysia Airlines new baby giant A330-300
Sepang, Selangor (14 April 2011)- Malaysia Airlines has launched its new A330-300 aircraft today.
Starting with a launch flight MH8888 from KLIA, guests were taken for a short journey to experience the new interiors and features of the aircraft. Upon arrival, the traditional water salute welcomed the latest aircraft to the Malaysia Airlines fleet, followed by a mixed drum ensemble. An eclectic dance performance symbolised the potpourri of cultures, as the passengers disembarked from the aircraft.
Malaysia Airlines’ Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer Tengku Dato’ Sri Azmil Zahruddin said, “We are delighted to launch our first A330-300 five months after the delivery of the new B737-800 in November. The latest fleet is aimed at creating a strong and sustained platform for us to serve our discerning customers and for Malaysia Airlines to remain profitable. These aircrafts will serve the growing markets of South Asia, China, North Asia and Australia.”
The new Airbus A330-300 is the first of 15 aircrafts to be delivered to Malaysia Airlines over the next four years, as part of the airline's fleet renewal programme. It is the second fleet after the B737-800 to sport the dynamic livery with red and blue lines representing the Malaysia Airlines’ corporate colours.
The enhanced A330-300 has a total capacity of 283 seats, 36 seats in Business class and 247 seats in Economy class (Singapore Airlines (SIA) has 285 seats, 30 seats in Business class and 255 seats in Economy class which MAS better than SIA on their A330-300). All seats are equipped with AC power supply and USB port for laptops and electronic equipment. The new interiors are installed with mood lighting in all cabins and spacious overhead baggage compartments.
To provide enhanced experience and comfort, the sophisticated features and interiors of the new A330-300 Business Class cabin offer comfortable angled lie flat seats, a fold-out privacy divider and six-way adjustable headrest, among others, presenting the traveller with both a mini office, as well as a place to unwind.
The Economy Class cabin, features lightweight and slim design seats with four-way headrest. Each seat is equipped with individual audio-video on demand smart screens. The latest movies, TV programs, moving map and games are available for both cabins.
The first commercial flight on the new A330-300 will be from Kuala Lumpur to Brisbane departing on 20 April 2011, followed by flights to Shanghai, Osaka, Beijing, Perth and Delhi on later dates.
