MH2261 (SBW-KCH),29/11/2012

On 29/11,I've went to Kuching (again,for the 3rd time this year),for my eldest brother wedding day.Me,alongside my parents and my aunt.And here are the photos snapped during the flight duration:

B737-4H6 9M-MMZ of MH getting readied for her flight to KUL

My "Remove before Flight" tag

Passengers on the Departure Hall; these were MH passengers,and for the AK side of the departure hall,it was empty as there were no AK flights at the time

Boarding the plane; SBW is now using dual bridgeway; that means 4 aircrafts (B737/A320) can be parked at the same time on the bridgeways.

The "Golden Club' Class seats

View of the Port side

The space was good

Love the safety card new design 

The Air Sickness Bag

Surprised to see a In-flight sale catalog onboard the flight; Is MH really offering In-Flight sales for selected domestic flight?

The models offered on the catalog; Must get myself the B737-800,and also the A330-300 in the old livery.

Any info about this plane is much welcomed

Childhood dream became a reality: Visiting the Sarawak State Assembly Council Building

From 22nd to 24th of November,I've went to Kuching (for the 2nd time for this year) as part of the Youth Integration Visit entourage.The location of the 3 days and 2 night tour was the Sarawak State Legislative Hall (Which I've haven't visited).It's a golden opportunity for me,and also a childhood dream becoming a reality.

After arriving at Kuching,we later checked in at Dormani Hotel,and at night,we went to Top Spot Seafood for dinner with ADUN for N49 Nangka,YB Dr.Annuar Rapaee.

On the next day,we departed to the DUN Complex at 0800hrs.Despite being hampered by traffic jam along the Petra Jaya-Matang roundabout,the trip was smooth.

Below are the photos:
