Airline launches daily Malaysia-Clark flights

CLARK ZONE, Pampanga — Air Asia made history yesterday by launching its daily service between Malaysia and Clark zone with the first ever low airline fare.


Air Asia’s Boeing 737-300s landed at the Diosdado Macapagal International Airport (DMIA) here from Kuala Lumpur with 123 passengers who paid 99.99 Malaysian ringgit (MR) or roughly R1,449 one-way fare each.

The first group of passengers from Kuala Lumpur was given a rousing welcome at the DMIA terminal by Clark Development Corp. (CDC) executives led by Executive Vice President Victor Jose Luciano and Air Asia officials led by Antonio Fernandez.

Air Asia will continue its twice daily flights between DMIA and Kota Kinabalu and Kuala Lumpur.

Fernandez had earlier announced that the low air fare rates of Air Asia will stay permanently and "not just a promotional scheme."

He said that "there is a tremendous potential for growth in the airline industry to be unlocked with the low fares" introduced by Air Asia
