AirAsia launches Penang - Langkawi Promotion

AirAsia is to launch a new daily flight between Penang and Langkawi from 13 May 2010. To celebrate, AirAsia is offering a fare from just RM9 plus airport tax. The 4 days promotion starts today, 8 April 2010, and ends on 11 April 2010. The travel period is from 13 May 2010 to 13 February 2011.

To make the deal sweeter, airasiago.com is offering hotel rooms from RM100 per night from 3-5 star participating hotels to choose from. These include Eagle Bay Hotel, Hotel Grand Continental Langkawi, Bayview Hotel Langkawi and Rebak Island Resort Langkawi – A Taj Hotel.

Kathleen Tan, Regional Head of Commercial, AirAsia Berhad said, “There is huge potential for the route as there are quite a number of tourist traffic who stops by Penang before continuing their journey to Langkawi. We strongly believe that this new service is a pledge to business travelers who are time sensitive. Guests opting to hub in Penang and hop to Langkawi no longer need to trouble themselves by traveling by road to Penang or taking the ferry to Langkawi from the city. With the new route, flying would be an easier option and more importantly cost effective!”
