Whilst the temptation might be to go for the later flight, I’d think carefully about what you might do with those extra two hours. Is it usable pool time, or will you just be hanging around waiting for a taxi? If it’s marginal, go for the earlier one. At least you have a fall-back plan.
And book direct with the airline. I’ve seen Air Asia flights 50% cheaper (so saving maybe £10) by going through a big OTA, but if it goes wrong you want to be talking to the organ grinder.
