Air Asia X still going strong

Air Asia X are going from strength to strength even four years after it took to the skies, Asia’s biggest long-haul budget carrier AirAsia X has proved sceptics wrong and is now set on a major expansion.
In its short life the airline has survived high oil prices, economic crisis, natural disasters and outbreaks of disease such as bird flu, all of which have wounded much more established regional carriers.
Now the carrier is planning to spread its wings to more destinations in the Asia Pacific and Middle East markets where it believes there is enormous untapped demand, chief executive Azran Osman-Ali said in an interview.
