While there are no deals in place yet for Malaysia’s multinational low-cost carrier, the airline has released a statement that they welcome the government’s announcement for domestic travel, starting with the Langkawi travel bubble.

The announcement means that eligible travellers can start planning their travel arrangements.

Riad Asmat, CEO of AirAsia Malaysia says they are currently working on a few campaigns to revitalise tourism in Langkawi with some very “attractive deals” which will be announced soon.

He’s advised everyone to download the AirAsia Super App to avoid missing out on their Langkawi deals.  

With Covid-19 still looming and people still hesitant about travelling, both Airlines have said they are committed to making safety their top priority.

Both have implemented strict health and hygiene protocols, along with fully vaccinated front staff including their pilots and cabin crew.
