Do you have acccess to the actual numbers to determine both MH's CASM and RASM on these routes they axed?

Or are you just assuming because you bought expensive tickets and planes were full when you flew MH was making money?

Competes with Air Asia = lower RASM in most cases

RASM lower than CASM = logical reason to cancel service
