AirAsia will begin thrice-weekly direct
flights from Kuala Lumpur to the Maldives from October 22, becoming the only
airline to operate this route.
Malaysia Airlines, which currently offers
daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to the Maldives, will suspend the service from
August 23.
Welcoming the new connection, Cooper Huang,
CEO of Malaysian Harmony Tours & Travel, said: “The Maldives is a popular,
year-round destination and is especially so for honeymooners. As most
travellers will purchase air tickets from the AirAsia website, we will offer
ground packages which can also be tailor-made.”
According to Spencer Lee, head of commercial
at AirAsia, the flight schedule for the Kuala Lumpur-Maldives route allows
travellers from other countries such as South Korea, Japan, China, Hong Kong,
Thailand and Australia to connect easily via the carrier's Fly-Thru service.
Destinations which offers Fly-Thru
connectivity to the Maldives include Incheon, Osaka, Hong Kong, Shenzhen,
Bangkok, Penang and Gold Coast, he added.
Online
booking at airasia.com has begun
with all-inclusive fares starting from RM169 (US$44.60) for travel periods from
October 22, 2015 to August 31, 2016. This promotion ends on July 26.
