AirAsia is back in the spotlight, grabbing two big titles at this year’s World Travel Awards (WTA) Asia and Oceania. The airline was named “Asia’s Leading Low-Cost Airline” for the eighth year in a row and also took home the title for “Asia’s Leading Low-Cost Airline Cabin Crew” for the seventh straight year. These wins come hot on the heels of AirAsia being named the World’s Best Low-Cost Airline by Skytrax for 14 years in a row.
A Victory Among Many Competitors
The airline beat out more than 10 other airlines to win these awards, which are voted on by industry insiders, regular travelers, and travel pros from all over the region. Bo Lingam, Group CEO of AirAsia, thanked the nearly 800 million guests and the airline’s staff for their support. He promised that the airline is committed to providing an even better customer experience both in the air and on the ground as they aim to bring 200 planes back into operation by the end of the year.
Not Just About the Flights
But AirAsia’s winning streak doesn’t stop with just the airline. The airasia Superapp also won the “Asia’s Leading Online Travel Agency (OTA)” award. This is a big deal, especially since it was the app’s first time being nominated. The app offers a range of services, from booking flights and hotels to ride-hailing and duty-free shopping, making it a must-have tool for 51 million travelers looking for value and convenience.
What the Leaders Have to Say
Suhaila Hassan, AirAsia Group Head of Cabin Crew, said the award for the cabin crew is more than just a pat on the back. It shows the dedication and passion of the crew in making sure travelers have a great experience. Tan Mai Yin, Chief Commercial Officer of airasia Superapp, echoed similar sentiments. She said the award confirms their commitment to changing how people travel, offering a one-stop platform that makes the entire journey easier from start to finish.
AirAsia continues to soar high with multiple wins at this year’s World Travel Awards for both the airline and its Superapp. These awards are a clear sign of the airline’s commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction. With plans to expand and improve, the future looks bright for AirAsia and its millions of satisfied customers.
