Air asia starting Kolkata Bangkok flight

One thing we did notice was the overwhelming queries and suggestions on where AirAsia should fly to next. Everyone has a wish list. Believe us, we know. Some want us to be able to fly to Istanbul, others to Shanghai but all wanting to pay low fares of course!
So now is your chance! We want to hear your comments on where you wish AirAsia would be able to fly to next. Imagine a world of low-cost travel where flying to any destination on low fares is possible?
Air Asia is planning Kolkata-Bangkok direct flight,The Malaysian low-cost carrier plans to launch flight service to other destinations of the country like Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad and Amritsar from Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur in the future.
I'm wondering how come jetstar's A320 can fly from SIN-TPE but AirAsia can't?
TPE is already become the hottest place to visit.

2nd places is Korean & Japan
Korea -> Incheon (ICN)
Japan -> Nagoya - Chūbu Centrair (NGO)
-> Osaka - Kansai (KIX)
(Really give up to Tokyo-Narita International Airport due to over high landing fee?)

3rd places is USA
-Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
-Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD)
-New York - (JFK or EWR)
(Wondering can A330 fly over transpacific?)

New destinations:
India (huge potential there!)
Sydney
Japanese cities
More Chinese cities (perhaps Beijing chongqing guangzhou)
European cities (don't focus on London only, consider low yield, holiday maker marketsl perhaps Athens, Madrid, Austria, Scandinavian cities).

Potential routes:
Bali is a good hub for connection, make some more connections out of there, such as to Australian cities. Australians love to come to Bali, maybe Perth to Bali, Adelaide to Bali, even Melbourne.
Jakarta-Singapore is a great addition too.

Increase frequency:
Kuala Lumpur-Alor Star KUL to Hong Kong
Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur-Singapore(huge potential to capitalise the route)
Bangkok-Singapore

I think that's all for now, these are what comes on top of my head. Any blogger agree with me?
