The direct connectivity between Kuala Lumpur - Luang Prabang is AirAsia Group’s 70th intra-ASEAN route connecting all ten ASEAN countries, as well as the airline’s fourth route into Laos after Kuala Lumpur – Vientiane, Bangkok – Vientiane and Bangkok - Luang Prabang.

Ms Aireen Omar, CEO of AirAsia Berhad, said, “We are very happy to be the first and only airline to connect Luang Prabang to Kuala Lumpur directly. We are also pleased to be the airline that connects the people of Laos to two of the main cities in ASEAN; Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur which are both major AirAsia hubs. From there, Laotians are able to connect to over 120 AirAsia destinations throughout 27 countries. As a Truly ASEAN airline, we want to further champion connectivity to second and third-tier cities, and help to grow the market together.”

An UNESCO World Heritage city, Luang Prabang is one of the most alluring places in Southeast Asia. The former capital is located in Northern Central Laos, approximately 300km North of Vientiane at the confluence of the Mekong River and the Nam Khan River.
