SINGAPORE, February 19, 2024 -- Logan Velaitham, CEO of AirAsia Singapore said: “We are happy to enable affordable travel between Singapore and India with consistently competitive low fares, especially as we recently commemorated 20 years of operations in Singapore. The expansion of the Indian market stands as one of our core focuses as a Group this year, driven by popular demand. Through our Fly-Thru service, we seamlessly connect travellers from Singapore to India and vice versa, bolstering arrivals into Changi Airport. This enables access to AirAsia’s extensive network of over 130 destinations with a convenient short-stop in Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok (Don Mueang), without the need to collect or re-check in baggage during transit.

Following AirAsia's celebration of two decades of operations in Singapore last week, the airline is poised to elevate guests' travel experiences with an extensive network expansion to 12 dynamic cities in India, facilitated by its seamless Fly-Thru connecting service.

“Singapore and India share a robust and multifaceted relationship that extends across tourism, economic, political, and cultural dimensions. Positioned as India’s eighth largest trade partner, Singapore serves as a pivotal gateway for Indian businesses seeking expansion into Southeast Asia, while India offers Singapore with abundant opportunities in technology and innovation. Additionally, leisure travel between both destinations is highly sought after. We are dedicated to providing our guests with more travel options, facilitating seamless connections through our expanding Fly-Thru service and network expansion in the future,” Logan added.
