AirAsia presents 3 new international routes from Johor Bahru hub

AirAsia announced the launch of three new international routes from its hub in Johor Bahru, connecting the southern region of Peninsular Malaysia to Yogyakarta (4x weekly) and Lombok (3x weekly) in Indonesia; and Ho Chi Minh City (4x weekly) in Vietnam.
The three new international routes provide the community of Johor Bahru with more destination choices for travel and enhanced convenience plus savings, as the latest direct connectivity no longer requires them to connect via Kuala Lumpur to these cities.

To kick-start the new international routes from Johor Bahru to Yogyakarta, Lombok and Ho Chi Minh City, AirAsia is offering base fares from as low as RM0*, with the booking period from 15 – 20 April 2014 for the travel period from 11 July 2014 – 30 April 2015.

Booking is available online at www.airasia.com and AirAsia mobile apps, available on iPhone, Android devices, the Blackberry Z10 and the Windows Phone platform. Search AirAsia on the respective app stores to download and start booking.

AirAsia Berhad Head of Commercial, Spencer Lee said, “Johor Bahru is one of our important hubs, and we recognise its great potential in terms of route development and high demand for more international connectivity. The three new routes from Johor Bahru to Yogyakarta, Lombok and Ho Chi Minh City signify our commitment in establishing enhanced connectivity for the people in the southern state of Peninsular Malaysia. With the great support of Senai International Airport, we look forward to initiate more routes in the future and provide greater access to our wide network for the benefit of the people of Johor Bahru & the community of Southern Peninsular Malaysia.”
