AirAsia has unveiled more domestic routes
from its secondary hubs in Malaysia as well as several new connections to China
and India launching this year.
The Malaysian LCC commenced a Kuala
Lumpur-Bhubaneswar (India) flight on April 26, the first international airline
to fly into the east Indian city and capital of Odisha, which Malaysian agents
expect to spur FIT demand.
“Prior to the opening of this route,
travellers from Bhubaneswar and surrounding areas would have to take flights
from Chennai, Mumbai or Kolkata to travel to Malaysia,” A Aruldas, managing
director of Tourland Travel, said. “The new flights are also timely with
Malaysia’s relaxation of the visa facility for Indian tourists.”
Come August 9, AirAsia will begin a thrice-weekly
service connecting Langkawi to Shenzhen for the first time and
four-times weekly flights between Langkawi and Kuching that same day.
Other
new domestic routes include the inaugural Johor Bahru-Langkawi service launched
since April 28, in addition to the upcoming Johor Bahru-Kuala Terengganu
flights commencing June 22.
