KUALA LUMPUR: Over 30 million AirAsia X guests have flown to over 25 destinations in different regions including the United States since the airline’s inception in November 2007, said AirAsia X group chief executive officer, Datuk Kamarudin Meranun.

In a statement, he said AirAsia X’s 10th anniversary was a memorable milestone with a lot to celebrate as it was an airline that many thought would not succeed in the beginning.

“As we receive more wide-body aircraft in the next few years, route network expansion becomes even more crucial and we will definitely be launching more exciting long-haul destinations to stimulate travel demand,” he added.

To commemorate the milestone, the airline is running a special AirAsia X Anniversary Scavenger Hunt online contest from Nov 2-5, 2017, in which 100 flight tickets to selected destinations will be given away to five winners.

Those interested to participate in the contest can use social media hashtags #10xcitingyears on social media platforms including Instagram, Twitter and Weibo.

“AirAsia X will also run a special anniversary promotion with all-in fares from as low as RM250 one-way for standard seats and RM750 one-way on Premium Flatbed to Perth (Australia), Taipei (Taiwan), Osaka (Japan), New Delhi (India) and Chinese cities ? Hangzhou, Xi’An, Shanghai and Beijing.

“The promo fares are open for booking from today until Oct 29 for travel period from May 1, 2018 to Nov 21, 2018,” it added. - Bernama
