Sepang (Malaysia), Nov. 21 (ANI): With the launching of three new flights to Kochi, Kolkata and Trivandrum, Malaysia-based low cost carrier AirAsia is set to become the most connected non-local airline in India.
AirAsia is also planning flights to nine new destinations in India soon.
"AirAsia is now operating in a market of 2.5 billion people and it is a nice position to be in," The Star quoted AirAsia CEO Tony Fernandes, as saying.
Fernandes said that flights to Kochi and Kolkata will operate daily, while there will be two flights to Trivandrum operating two or five times weekly.
AirAsia also announced three more flights to Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad starting from April next year.
