Lombok set to be next hub for AirAsia
AirAsia is looking to turn Lombok into its next major hub, with plans to launch services to Perth, Yogyakarta and Denpasar by mid-year. The group states that the announcement of its hub plan follows a series of discussions on Lombok’s recovery from the 2018 earthquake, along with Indonesia’s plans to develop more tourist destinations across the archipelago. “In the next few months, we will be working with airports and govt authorities to turn Lombok into our newest hub in Indonesia, making this commitment a reality,” says AirAsia Group CE Tony Fernandes. In support of that goal, Indonesia AirAsia plans to base two Airbus A320s at Lombok, which will allow it to double its services to Kuala Lumpur, in addition to the new routes flagged. <br/>
