AirAsia to mount Kuala Lumpur-Lombok flights

AIRASIA will offer thrice-weekly services between Kuala Lumpur and Lombok, one of the main islands in Indonesia's West Nusa Tenggara province, starting October 12.

Available on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, the new flights mark the low-cost carrier's 15th destination in Indonesia.

AirAsia head of commercial, Jasmine Lee, said: “Lombok is a must for those seeking adventure, serenity or a romantic getaway. Outdoor lovers may embark on adventurous trips to explore Mount Rinjani. Honeymooners will find the sandy beaches at Senggigi and the surrounding Gili Island as romantic retreats.”

The travel trade in Lombok have been expecting a slew of new flight connections since the opening of Lombok International Airport last October (TTG Asia e-Daily, September 26, 2011).
