1901 Hot Dog on Air Asia

A lot of us tends to get hungry while flying on board, especially the long-haul flights to international destinations. So this smart CEO of AirAsia knew this could be yet another way to net in more profits, following many additional charges that were already implemented.

The free tickets or low-fares were actually meant for those really, really, early birds who can get them. For those who’re late, they might be paying at normal fares, or sometimes even extra to get a ticket. You do the math, when you span average the total fees collected, they pretty much got it covered and then earning some.

Anyway, today, we’re looking at this very hot franchise brand in Malaysia, it’s franchises are spreading nationwide that even Sibu has it! Ya, Sibu. It’s weird because there aren’t much Siburian who’ll fork out premium price to savor just a piece of ordinary chicken sausage wrapped in the middle of a long bun with sesame on top of it. So much so that they even had a franchise opened up in the air, thanks to Air Asia.

But there’s consequences with opening so many branches and having the ingredients rushed through the catering deck. This is my experience of having the 1901 on AirAsia.

The hotdog in a box
The hotdog arrived pretty promptly after the order in a nicely packaged paper container.

Hotdog wrapped. Seasonings provided.
Wrapped and microwaved hotdog. Seasonings and sauces are readily provided at self-service.

Buns and hotdog
The wrinkled buns and hot dog. Very disappointing.

Spreading chili sauce and mayonnaise
Spreading the chilli sauce and mayonnaise over the sausage.

Plain hotdog
There you have it. A plain hotdog with chilli and mayonnaise. That would be RM8(?) sir. WTF?

Lousy 1901 hotdog
Thumbs down for the hotdog. Ask your kid to spot the difference between the leaftlet and the real hot dog. What’s missing?

Being ripped off here.
