AirAsia X To Commence Flights To Gatwick From Oct 24

AirAsia X, the long-haul low-fare affiliate of AirAsia, will commence flights from the Kuala Lumpur Low-Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) to Gatwick Airport from Oct 24.

"The new UK base for the airline is set to further increase passenger traffic from South-East Asia to London and Europe with six flights weekly to Gatwick Airport by mid-December," it said in a statement.

The decision to switch from Stansted to Gatwick Airport was made to maximise commercial opportunities at Gatwick and drive increased traffic between the UK and Malaysia and also the various key feeder markets within AirAsia's network in Asia Pacific, it added.

To mark the occasion, AirAsia X is offering one way all-in fare from RM1,039 (338) for Economy seats and one way all-in fare from RM3,429 (930) for Premium Fly Flat bed seats through online bookings made from July 13 to 24 at www.airasia.com for the travel period beginning Feb 6 till June 6 next year.
