• It will minimize the operational cost and also boost up cash inflow
Increase the domestic price
• MAS should also increase the domestic price in order to cover it’s over expenses
• MAS can implement the administration fee per person, which they are not done it before
• It will generate cash inflow to overcome the shortage of cash problem

• . For example, the route of Kuala Lumpur – Manchester which had been claimed to be so dysfunctional that it had to be 140% capacity full to break-even
• . The company should give attention to the routes that give the company a lot of profit. MAS should also reschedule all of its flight timing and changed its operation model from point to point services to hub.
