tolsti Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 According to the BBC there's a new lowcost airline launching late this year serving Malaysia and India, China and Europe. ''Reports suggest Air Asia X flights to London could be priced as low as 9.99 ringitt ($2.84; £1.46)'' This would surely be a real winner even if they charge 10 times that amount, add on a bit and you're in BKK for well under £100??? full report here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6233295.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arandora Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 (edited) it was already discussed here some 5 days agohttp://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?sh...c=99363&hl= So, the rumours were true, except it's just Air Asia - no Virgin or Easy Jet. It's just been confirmed on our Regional TV which showed the signing ceremony in Kual Lumpur. Initially flights from KL to Manchester to KL (Man.United being AirAsia's official SE Asia Airline it kakes global marketing sense) at suggested price of from £40 each way. Didn't say when from though. Edit: Just changed channels to BBC Regional and they say Manchesrer "in the running" with Air2000 as the hub for a new SE Asia airline with fares about half current price.

Just seen on CNN website: Air Asia X from KL to either London Stansted or to Manchester, prices about half the usual, starting in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
