Thai AirAsia to start direct flights to Jaipur, Trichy in Sept
31 July 2017
Thai AirAsia will start direct flights to Jaipur and Trichy in September as budget carrier AirAsia Bhd’s South-East Asian affiliates grow their links with India.
The budget airline will fly four times a week between Bangkok and Rajasthan’s capital Jaipur starting from Sept 29, the airline said in an announcement in India on Monday.
Thai AirAsia chief executive officer, Tassapon Bijleveld, said AirAsia planned to expand services to India to tap into the growing tourism and business travel demand.
Thai AirAsia already has direct flights to Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Kochi in India and will also launch its four-times-weekly service to Tamil Nadu’s Tiruchirappalli city, also known as Trichy, on Sept 29.
The new flights would provide convenient and affordable travel options to Indian tourists visiting Thailand, as well as regional destinations such as Kuala Lumpur, Ho Chi Minh City, Singapore and Macau using AirAsia’s regional network, the Thai AirAsia chief said at a press conference in Jaipur.

Would the JAI flights be bringing in tourists from SE Asia or taking JAI residents to SE Asia? Just curious. |
