AirAsia
is to launch four direct weekly flights between Kuala Lumpur’s Low Cost Carrier Terminal and Liangjiang Airport in Guilin,
China, from 3 September 2008.
To celebrate the
new route, AirAsia is offering a special launch fare of just RM88
(CNY200) for bookings between 23 – 27 July 2008 and travel between 3 September 2008
and 30 April 2009. The promotional fares are for one way travel and
exclusive of all taxes, service fees, surcharges etc.
Guilin, situated in the northeast of the Guangxi Region, is one of China’s most popular tourist destinations, welcoming over 13 million foreign
visitors in 2007. Renowned for its unique scenery and cultural heritage, the city of Guilin is home to some of the world’s most famous natural
tourist attractions including Seven Stars conversation park and Ri rivers.
Guilin is famed for its captivating natural beauty, serene rivers and
majestic natural formations and is without a doubt, one of the most beautiful natural landscapes in Asia. Surrounded by
mountains 200 million years in the making, Guilin’s landscape is a product of the earth’s movements; karst formations moulded through years of erosion to form rock hills with bizarre shapes. If
that isn’t enough to keep one enthralled, Guilin also has two crystal clear rivers running through the city, around which
many fairytales and fables have been woven.
Dato’ Sri Tony Fernandes, CEO
AirAsia, said, “As a key tourist destination in China, Guilin is a valuable addition to AirAsia’s growing route
network in Southern China. Considering the region’s popularity as a holiday destination, we are confident that there will be plenty of demand for
the Guilin route.”
The launch of the new Guilin route marks the airline’s seventh destination to China, a route network which has carried over 2.2 million
passengers to date.
