In conjunction with Malaysia’s 13th General Election, AirAsia X, the long-haul, low fare airline affiliate of the AirAsia Group today, launched its “Fly Home to Vote” campaign offering x-citing fares for Malaysian voters residing overseas to return home and vote.
The “Fly Home to Vote” campaign will allow Malaysian guests residing overseas to come home in time to vote on 5 May 2013 and plan their return flights after the elections.
AirAsia X is offering promotional fares to eligible Malaysian voters from Australia with fares from as low as AUD 199*, Japan from as low as JPY12,000*, China from as low as CNY600*, Korea from as low as KRW129,000* and Taiwan from as low as TWD3290* to Kuala Lumpur.

For more details on the election campaign, kindly e-mail your request to [email protected].
AirAsia X’s Chief Executive Officer, Azran Osman-Rani said, “We are pleased to launch this promotional fare to our registered Malaysian voters residing overseas and we are confident that our low fares will help stimulate and trigger the travel demand among Malaysian voters across the region. We are aware that all Malaysians, local or abroad are the rightful stakeholders of our nation and hence, as a registered Malaysian voter, it is indeed important to come home and vote in person.”
“We are always constantly looking for ways to enhance and improve our services and offerings; and offering affordable fares for our Malaysians overseas to put their “X” in the ballot box is part of our initiative in serving our beloved country; Malaysia.
