AirAsia has launched flights between Kolkata and
Kuala Lumpur. For all flights to India, AirAsia utilizes a brand
new modern fleet of comfortable and spacious Airbus A320 aircraft
fitted with leather seats.
Kathleen Tan, Regional Head of Commercial
Airasia said, “With Kolkata added to our extensive network,
AirAsia is unlocking the potential of international air travel
from Kuala Lumpur to eastern India and its surrounding areas. We
are thrilled to be serving Kolkata direct, a huge market that no
other airline is serving direct. With the commencement of the
direct service to Kuala Lumpur, the people in West Bengal and
India may now use Kolkata as a gateway to our extensive route
network to ASEAN and beyond.”
“We always strive hard to continue expanding our
presently extensive network, and there are plans to initiate
services to other cities in India soon. Be on the lookout for more
surprises from us,” Ms. Tan added.
AirAsia is currently the largest low-cost
carrier in Asia and services one of the most extensive route
networks in South East Asia with over 70 destinations across 20
countries and 9 major hubs in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Kota
Kinabalu), Thailand (Bangkok, Phuket) and Indonesia (Jakarta,
Bali, Surabaya, Bandung). It has grown from a modest two aircraft
to its current fleet of 85, servicing over 130 routes in just 7
years.
