2.0 Proposed Solution

2.1 Proposed Solution 1: Pay Later option does not work (Asadul Islam)

2.1.1 System Issue 1: Pay Later option does not work

Ticket prices drops and rises regularly. Pay later option let a customer book a flight with a
little portion of the booking money and the rest can be paid before the flight in person or with card.
This is a crucial feature. In this way, if a customer cannot fly because of personal issues or any kind
of issues, he/she will not have to request for refund. Refund is a lengthy process and takes time. Pay
later offers benefits for consumers, including increased affordability and more flexibility in
payments. This payment method has become increasingly popular. Even though Malindo Air offers
pay later option, but it is not working properly since there is no field where customer can enter their
card details to book the flight.

2. 3.1 System Issue 3: No “choice of currency” option

Malindo Air now operates approximately 800 flights per week to over 40 destinations in

willing to buy from Malindo Air and change to other airline due to the inconvenient that the
websites brought to them. Malindo Air has no “choice of currency” option in the official website as
shown in Figure 5 (Malindo Air, 2022).

Figure 5: Homepage (Malindo Air, 2022)

2.4 Proposed Solution 4: Website layout is not well categorised (Ho Joo Cheng)

2.4.1 System Issue 4: Website layout is not well categorised

From a user’s point of view, the website should be user-friendly and easy to understand
immediately, with a clearly divided navigation bar and complete content in the navigation bar.
However, Malindo Air’s website layout is not user-friendly, the categories are not stated
completely, and it separated to two parts (top & bottom) as well as there is also a lot of content that
is not shown in the navigation bar. Users will be unable to find relevant information quickly if they
must discover it for themselves. Moreover, there are pages that shows the result “have not been
found”.

For an example, when a user wants to find about insurance, they cannot find the keywords
about insurance in the navigation bar, they must click on the other keywords to enter another page
then they will find the information.

2.5 Proposed Solution 5: Latest news not updated frequently (Kanta Inoue)

2.5.1 System Issue 5: Latest news not updated frequently (Kanta Inoue)

Malindo Air is growing their business rapidly that now people choose to fly with them.
Though their business seems perfect and successful, there is a major problem on the website which
may cause them to lose their potential customers. The problem found on the website is that their
latest news is not updated frequently shown in the Figure 16 (Malindo Air, 2022). This may make
passengers feeling worried and uncomfortable, which might cause inconvenience for them.

Figure 16: Latest News (Malindo Air, 2022)

passengers may get to know what this airline is like. Latest news should provide passengers with
any news which the company wants them to read but they all need to be accurate and precise.

2.6 Proposed Solution 6: Chatbot Unavailable (Wong Jian Wei)

2.6.1 System Issue 6: Chatbot Unavailable (Wong Jian Wei)

Malindo Air is one of the airlines with huge influx of passengers daily, taking flights to their
desired destinations. Therefore, an airline website such as malindoair.com proved to be highly
beneficial for the users. Users will be able to find information on cheap fare tickets, make booking
and make cancellations on the website. However, Malindo Air failed to include a method for the
users to make simple enquiries on their website. Malindo Air did not provide users with a chatbot or
a live chat function. Instead, Malindo Air only provided customer care centre service lines in their
website as shown in Figure 9 (Malindo Air, 2022).

Figure 18: Customer Care Centre (Malindo Air, 2022)

2.6.2 Proposed System: Chatbot Unavailable

An airline website portal should provide its users easy access to chatbot function to aid users
for their enquiries and airline-related issues. The chatbot function should also include predictive
analytics to provide initiative-taking assistance towards users during the conversation.

same functionality where a customer can pay a little amount of money to book a flight and the rest
can be paid later.

and select the language needed. All of the word will be changed into the selected language in a few
seconds.

4.3 Existing Systems Review 3: No “choice of currency” option (Chew Zi Qing)

AirAsia provides quick “change of currency” option for the users to allow users change
currency based on the choice of currency that they desired. The “change of currency” allows users
to compare price and buy ticket more efficiently. User can easily change the choice of currency at
the main page. The “choice of currency” is put under the same category as the “choice of language”
(AirAsia, 2022).

their news everyday but still the information is up to date (All Nippon Airways, 2022)

4.7 Existing Systems Review 7: Chatbot Unavailable (Wong Jian Wei)

AirAsia provides the users a page with interactive chatbot to allow the users to get access to
the information of their enquiries. The chatbot provides suggestive phrases to pinpoint the topic that
the user wanted to enquire on easily. User can easily find the chatbot icon in the homepage, with
vibrant colours to make the icon visible among the details of the homepage. The chatbot uses
sentences that is simple and short, allowing users with lower understanding of language to
understand the chatbot easily (AirAsia, 2022).
