AirAsia axes Solo flights

Sepang, May 23, 2012

AIRASIA will scrap its daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to Solo in Central Java, Indonesia, effective September 2, 2012.

The low-cost carrier explained in a statement that the route suspension was in line with business strategy to realign and strengthen its operations in Indonesia.

Affected customers with confirmed bookings will be given the option of either bringing forward their travel dates without additonal charge, a complimentary change of flight from Kuala Lumpur-Solo to Yogyakarta or Semarang, a credit shell for the value paid with a validity of three months, or a full refund.

Meanwhile, AirAsia said that “more connectivity” was on the cards for routes between Kuala Lumpur and other destinations in Indonesia.
