Leading low cost long haul airline AirAsia X has announced that they will waive their base seat fare from Kuala Lumpur to Australia to rescue stranded passengers in Thailand and Bali affected by the grounding of the Air Australia fleet.
AirAsia X chief executive officer Azran Osman-Rani said that stranded passengers in Thailand and Bali will need to make their own way to Kuala Lumpur where they can purchase special tickets back to Australia from only $56*.
Upon arrival at the Low Cost Carrier Terminal in Kuala Lumpur, passengers will need to present to the AirAsia sales counter where they will be assisted in making arrangements back to Australia.
Upon presentation of a valid Air Australia ticket, passengers will be able to purchase a ticket to AirAsia X Australia destinations (Gold Coast, Melbourne and Perth) for the cost of applicable taxes and charges only. The fares are to Gold Coast 56*, Perth $61* and Melbourne $64*.
“We’re very sympathetic to their plight at this difficult time and are helping out with a free base fare seat with passengers only required to pay the applicable taxes and charges,” Mr Osman-Rani said.
“Additionally, their baggage will be free for each passenger up to 20kg per person.”
The offer applies to long haul AirAsia X (D7) sectors to Australia only.
