$20 and 4 hour difference in travel time.
Some people simply prefer surface transport

Some others want to travel overnight and avoid a night's hotel cost

Finally, consider that you might have considerable difficulty finding super-cheap fares on Air Asia at the time of day you want, or even the day you want, particularly if it's last-minute travel.
