Receipt-style boarding pass.




After immigration and security, we were housed in this small and packed waiting lounge, which filled up nearly to capacity with the passengers of both Firefly and Tigerair SIN-bound flights.




Firefly being prepared for departure to Singapore.




Our plane arriving early from Singapore.




Firefly taxiing for departure.





24 January 2016
Tigerair
TR 2483
Ipoh (IPH) - Singapore (SIN)
A320
9V-TAF
Budget Class
Flight Time: 1h15m



With the early arrival of aircraft, boarding was called ahead of schedule as well. Priority "Board-me-first", though announced, was not enforced as the waiting lounge was pathetically small and passengers were crowding to board. So much for priority boarding.

Again, a walk across the tarmac to board the aircraft.






Note the difference in colours on the engines and the tailfin. The fuselage and engines were repainted with the new corporate identity but not the tailfin.




Boarding in progress. The original cloth-cladded seats on this older aircraft was refitted with leather covers. Flight ended up rather full and overhead bins were filled up as most passengers did not have check-in luggage.




Out the window.




Legroom, was expected, budget-style tight.




Tiger mags.
