AirAsia will commence daily direct flights to Tiruchirappalli from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, starting December 1. With a brand new Airbus A320 fleet, Tiruchirappalli will be the first route to be launched by AirAsia in India.
AirAsia is offering low fares starting from Rs 699 one-way. This offer is available online exclusively at AirAsia's website, www.airasia.com for the booking period from 30 October, 2008 – 9 November, 2008, for travel between December 1, 2008 – July 31, 2009.
With AirAsia offering an extensive route network encompassing over 108 routes in Asia, including the ones served by AirAsia X, its long-haul affiliate to Gold Coast, Perth, Melbourne, Australia and Hangzhou, China, it is now more convenient to fly to Kuala Lumpur from Tiruchirappalli in Tamil Nadu. Moreover, as compared to other budget carriers, the route network offered by this airline is the most extensive in the region. This will translate into a low-cost yet efficient travel experience for customers who would benefit from using the LCC Terminal in Kuala Lumpur to connect to other regional ASEAN cities or long haul sectors serviced by AirAsia.
Dato' Sri Tony Fernandes, Group CEO of AirAsia Berhad said, "AirAsia's low-cost model, with its ultra low fares and modern fleet of comfortable and spacious aircraft, is undoubtedly an attractive consumer proposition, strong enough to compete with premium airlines. Besides features such as our brand new modern fleet fitted with leather seats and spacious cabin, a variety of hot delicious meals, simple, no-frills but convenient and renowned customer service, friendly cabin crew, largest number of destinations serviced along with the highest flight frequencies and an unrivalled on-time guarantee, establish AirAsia's position as the best low-fare airline when it comes to offering customers the absolutely best-in-class travel value." |
