KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 27 — Local low-cost airline AirAsia said the recent spike in its airfares, particularly to Sarawak, was because the number of flights to the affected destinations were limited.
“It must be remembered that this is also the same mechanism that we used to offer guests promotional fares from as low as RM99 one way earlier in October,” Riad wrote in a statement today. The airline also announced confirmation it received today from the MOTS and SDMC for the approval of 42 more weekly flights from Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah into Sarawak, for the limited period between December 4, 2021, and January 5, 2022.
“Many guests had been able to grab our low fares when we ran a special promotion at the end of October with flights from Kuala Lumpur to Sarawak selling from as low as RM99 one way. This has stirred uneasiness among those looking to return home either to cast their votes in the December 18 Sarawak Elections, or to return home for the Christmas festive season.
And also hidden hands?
