AirAsia doubles Bali to Bangkok flights

Looks like AirAsia, an airline that’s had its fair share of controversy in 2015 with the search for its missing flight and problems with a Bali-Melbourne service, is now trying to win customers over by adding more Bali-Bangkok flights. 

The budget airline just doubled its frequency of Bali-Bangkok flights from seven times a week (daily) to 14 times a week (twice daily), according to Kompas. This reportedly just started on March 6 and is operated by an Airbus 320 aircraft. 

President Director of AirAsia Indonesia Sunu Widiyatmoko told Kompas that the Bali-Bangkok route was first operated by AirAsia Thailand (FD) in 2009 and since then, the demand has continued to grow and grow. 

According to Widiyatmoko, Bali’s not the only hotspot in Indonesia connected to Bangkok. Flights were upped from Jakarta to Bangkok in February 2015 from 14 times a week to 21 times a week to meet this growing demand.
