AirAsia Philippines emerged victorious at the 31st Philippine Travel Agencies Association, Inc. (PTAA) Travel Tour Expo, clinching the prestigious “Booth With Best Deals” award and achieving an impressive 14% increase in ticket sales compared to its 2023 performance.
The airline garnered recognition for offering the most competitive fare and baggage options, distinguishing itself as the sole carrier with the lowest rates. Guests at the expo enjoyed exclusive benefits, including a 10% discount on all flights and a 20% discount on baggage fees. Adding to the allure, AirAsia Philippines presented the 2.2 Love Takes Flight promotion, featuring a PHP22 one-way base fare, providing attendees with unbeatable deals.
“AirAsia is always known for prioritizing the travel needs of its guests. As an airline that democratized and pioneered low-cost travel, we will continue to innovate our ecosystem and provide our guests with the best offerings along with our guarantee of a safe and on-time journey. Recognitions such as this make us more passionate about our product and how it will make an impact on our guests,” according to Ricky Isla, AirAsia Philippines CEO.
The World’s Best Low-Cost Airline surpassed its sales target, fueled by a surge in international bookings on the opening day of the expo last 02 February 2024. Subsequent days, falling on the weekend, saw a mix of domestic and international bookings. Early bookers seized the opportunity to secure flights at advantageous rates, supported by a low Fuel Surcharge at Level 5 for February 2024.
Top destinations that captured the attention of expo attendees included island getaways such as Caticlan, Bohol, and Puerto Princesa, along with Instagram-worthy international locales like Osaka, Narita, Taipei, Hong Kong, and Bangkok.
Looking ahead, AirAsia Philippines teased its audience with the upcoming “LFG” summer campaign and the year’s first major sale, both scheduled for February. Travel enthusiasts are encouraged to monitor updates and promotions through the airasia Superapp and the official AirAsia website.
