AirAsia flies to the Maldives from 25 October 2015

AirAsia has announced plans to launch direct flights from Kuala Lumpur to the Maldives.
Commencing on 22 October 2015, the low-cost carrier will serve the route three times a week using a 180-seat, all-economy class Airbus A320 aircraft.

Flights will depart KL every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at 1855, arriving in Male at 2010. The return service will then leave at 2055, arriving back in KL at 0430 the next morning. The flight time will be approximately four hours and 15 minutes.

“Maldives tops the list of must-visit destinations for most people and the requests for flights to Maldives have been extremely overwhelming,” said Spencer Lee, AirAsia’s head of commercial.
“The flight schedule for this Kuala Lumpur-Maldives route allows travellers from all other regions such as Korea, Japan, China, Hong Kong, Thailand [and] Australia to connect easily using our Fly-Thru service,” he added.

Flights have opened for booking and AirAsia is offering promotional fares starting from just MYR169 (US$44) one-way.
