Thai AirAsia to inaugurate flights to Vientiane in July

Thai AirAsia (TAA) looks set to start serving Vientiane as the second city in Laos, which until recently was largely off-limits to low-cost carriers.<br/>TAA will become the first no-frills airline to operate on the Bangkok-Vientiane route when it launches daily flights in July. The Vientiane start-up follows TAA's successful entry to Luang Prabang. The airline commenced a daily service from Bangkok on March 24, becoming the first LCC to serve the old royal city. <br/>
