Welcome to my Scoot 2023 trip report! This is one of Scoot's Airbus A321NEO aircraft (9V-NCI) which was towed from a remote parking lot. Introduction I decided to fly to Malaysia at this time mainly to try out Myairlines on Penang to Kuala Lumpur route but unfortunately, the airline went bankrupt and up till today, I am still waiting for my refund. I booked Air Asia as my replacement flight so once that was decided, I need to figure out which airline to fly me home.
