AirAsia has reinstated five more routes between the two countries beginning 16 April 2022. Apart from increasing its Singapore-Kuala Lumpur daily frequency from one to four, the airline will also resume its flights between Singapore and Kuching, Miri, Langkawi, Ipoh and Kota Kinabalu, in line with the Singapore government’s announcement of the Vaccinated Travel Framework.
AirAsia has previously launched a VTL flight each for Singapore-Kuala Lumpur and Singapore-Penang.
Riad Asmat, CEO AirAsia Malaysia said: “AirAsia applauds the exemplary new framework set by the Singapore government. As seen by the success of previous VTL schemes, we hope that the removal of travel restrictions with only minimal testing requirements will make vaccinated travelling easier for everyone. To ensure we fulfill the pent-up demand of air travel across the region, AirAsia is working closely with industry players and government bodies especially the Singapore Tourism Board, with whom we are collaborating on joint promotional campaigns and leveraging on each others’ travellers database to drive more arrivals into Singapore.”
“AirAsia will continue to work closely with the Singapore government as the region transitions into an endemic phase of COVID-19, and we look forward to mounting more flights connecting the republic and the rest of Asean. As we have done so for the past 20 years, serving the underserved has always been part of AirAsia’s DNA and we are committed to reconnect families and friends across international borders by providing the best deals and lowest fares to our guests.”
