AirAsia to deploy A330 on Singapore-Kuala Lumpur route
Seeing increased demand between Singapore-Kuala Lumpur, AirAsia Group plans to add two more daily flights, this time using the Airbus A330-300. The widebody aircraft belongs to the LCC’s long-haul subsidiary AirAsia X, which will add 377 more seats per sector, an increase of 197 seats. Currently, all 9X-daily Singapore-KUL services are flown with the group’s A320, which seats 180 passengers. This year, the LCC has carried over 1m passengers on Singapore-KUL sector—24% are Singapore passport holders—and recorded a 4% year-on-year increase. “As part of the effort to ease overwhelming demand, AirAsia [is doubling] up the seating capacity with the addition of close to 400 seats per day through the operation of its widebody aircraft,” AirAsia said.<br/>
