Air Asia says it is to announce an additional order for 100 A320s. It had announced an order for 100 A320s earlier, which means that it will have 200 A320s, says UNI today.
Air Asia already has 15 A320s and 35 737-300s.
Air Asia is also annoucing a tie-up with Fly Asian Xpress (FAX) and start a long haul LCC to London and China as early as July 2007 using 1 Airbus A330 and 2 Boeing 777-300s.
It currently has orders for 100 A320s.
Fares on the long-haul network for destinations in China could be as low as 100 ringgit (28 dollars).
Fares to Britain will be between 300 ringgit and 2,500 ringgit, about half the price of the normal ticket on a regular airline.
National carrier Malaysia Airlines currently operates 18 times weekly to London and charges up to 5,000 ringgit (1,420 dollars) for economy class and 18,000 ringgit for business class.
Air Asia also says it plans to takeover the Indian subcontinent and Asia in a big way.
