AirAsia has launched flights between Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and
Lombok, Indonesia.
The new Kuala Lumpur – Lombok route is
available 3 times weekly on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.
The
route is the fifteenth Indonesian route that AirAsia operates from
Kuala Lumpur, with a total of 17 from hubs in Kuala Lumpur, Penang
and Kota Kinabalu.
To celebrate the launch AirAsia is offering promotional all-in-fares from as
low as RM149, with the booking period from now until 21 October
2012, for travel between 3 January and 31 March 2013. Terms and
conditions apply.
The celebrations did not end in Kuala Lumpur.
Flight AK 1408 received a grand welcome at Lombok International
Airport upon touching down at 11.45am on the same day.
“It’s an honour for us to
welcome AirAsia to Lombok. The airline’s new direct flight from
Kuala Lumpur to Lombok will definitely contribute to the number of
business and leisure travellers arriving into Lombok. This
‘bridge’ will greatly contribute towards strengthening Malaysian -
Indonesian ties and help enhance the economy both ways, through
more business and tourism activities,” said West Nusa Tenggara’s Vice Governor Ir. Badrul
Munir. “We are proud to open more doors for visitors to
experience the beauty and wonders of Lombok, a place which
presents stunning sceneries, calming waters and adventurous
outdoors, bound to satisfy the diverse preferences. The people of
Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara also benefit from this new
connectivity, as they can now enjoy direct access to various
places in Malaysia and the rest of the world via Kuala Lumpur as
the gateway.”
