flee 5 Report post Posted August 2, 2010 KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 2 (Bernama) -- AirAsia X, the Malaysian based long haul, low-fare airline Monday announced its latest international route, Kuala Lumpur to Seoul, South Korea. In a statement Monday, AirAsia X said it would fly direct to Incheon International Airport from Kuala Lumpur, starting from November 1, with direct daily flights. AirAsia X will be offering fares from RM99 for the travel period from Nov 1, 2010 to August 11, 2011. This new destination could not have come at a better time, as it will coincide with major school holidays and year end festivities, said AirAsia X Chief Executive Officer, Azran Osman-Rani. He said the airline was confident the new route will encourage new travel demands and stimulate tourism growth. "We estimate that more than 60 per cent of AirAsia X passengers to and from Seoul will be first time visitors, which will contribute significantly to tourism growth," Azran Osman-Rani added.

Bro Naim, for Malaysian don't need apply visa to enter Korea right? yes, up to 90 days, no visa for malaysian passport. korea is a very nice place to visit, esp. when taking the bullet train down south. in seoul, the locals crowd around street stalls selling freshly grilled squids/cuttlefish - very very tasty! many ppl speak english too, unlike china.

Yes, D7 tends to introduce new routes at RM 99 or RM 129. If you add 15 kg luggage and one meal, the total will be RM 300 return. Before the days of AirAsia, that will not even be enough to buy a KUL-KCH ticket on MH! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
