The resumption of services will initially be for key selected domestic routes, which will increase gradually to include international destinations around the network, once the situation improves and governments lift borders and travel restrictions.
The flights are already open for booking via the airasia.com website and our mobile app. Guests may use their credit accounts to redeem for these flights.
Further details on more routes and flight schedule will be announced in the coming weeks, subject to approval from the authorities.
President (Airlines) of AirAsia Group, Bo Lingam said: “We are very pleased to be able to fly again and to serve our guests starting with domestic routes, and hope to resume full operations as soon as possible. We have undertaken a thorough review of our guest handling procedures both on ground and onboard in light of the Covid-19 pandemic. We have been working closely with the airport authorities to ensure that all the relevant precautionary measures are in place to ensure a safe, pleasant and comfortable journey for everyone.
“At AirAsia, the safety and wellbeing of our guests and employees is always our highest priority.
