geovalin Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 AirAsia Cambodia (Phnom Penh) remains on track to start flying in the fourth quarter of 2023 and is spurring majority shareholder, Capital A, to look towards other new markets in Southeast Asia "that deserve an airline," according to Capital A CEO Tony Fernandes. Speaking in Sepang, Malaysia, on June 15, as Capital A held its annual general meeting, Fernades said, "we are expanding across ASEAN based on a wide network and a strong brand, with the launch of AirAsia Cambodia expected to start operating in 4Q, we are looking for opportunities in the remaining ASEAN countries that deserve an airline." Capital A owns a 51% stake in AirAsia Cambodia, with hospitality group Sivilai Asia taking the remaining share. The low-cost carrier plans to launch with two A321-200Ns, later expanding to as many as 15. It plans on flying routes within a four-hour radius of the country and will focus on flying to existing AirAsia Group hubs from Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Phnom Penh. read more https://www.ch-aviation.com/portal/news/128796-airasia-cambodia-sticks-to-4q23-launch-plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
