KOTA KINABALU: Tan Sri Tony Fernandes says AirAsia will try to reduce its airfares but concedes it would be challenging given the rising oil prices and strong US dollar.

The chief executive officer of Capital A Bhd, AirAsia’s parent company, also called on people "to have a heart" as the budget airline recovered from the effects of the pandemic.
