AirAsia awaits ICAO approval
Thai AirAsia X (TAAX) will suspend route expansions until at least mid-2017, after Thailand's aviation industry receives international safety approval. The carrier sees a good chance to launch new routes after the ICAO has decided to remove the red flag imposed on Thailand for its aviation safety shortcomings. The Civil Aviation Authority of Thailand has earlier this month expressed hopes that it will pass the next ICAO audit in June next year, thus clearing the major impediment to the country's aviation industry put in place in June 2015. TAAX CE Nadda Buranasiri declined to name specific countries TAAX wants to fly to, though he said countries in Eastern Europe and Down Under are under study for future coverage. <br/>
