AirAsia’s ‘Piso Fare’ promo returns
The budget carrier lures passengers with over 3M seats to over 20 countries

MANILA, Philippines – Following the travel passes launch in February, Malaysian-based budget carrier AirAsia now offers again its “Piso Fare” promo.

This round offers 3 million seats for grabs and over 20 countries across AirAsia Group’s route network.

With a base fare of P1 ($0.22) and no fuel surcharge, passengers only need to pay for airport taxes and fees when booking for this promotion, AirAsia said.

International destinations covered in this promo include: Kota Kinabalu; Kuala Lumpur; Macau; and Incheon (Seoul). Domestic spots include Cebu; Davao; Kalibo (Boracay); Manila; Puerto Princesa (Palawan); Tacloban: and Tagbilaran (Bohol).

From Cebu, promo fares are also available for flights to Incheon (Seoul); Kota Kinabalu; Davao; and Cagayan de Oro.

Flights from Kuala Lumpur to Bali; Bangkok; Kalibo (Boracay); Kota Kinabalu; Hong Kong, Langkawi; Melbourne; Penang; Sapporo (transit via Bangkok); Seoul; Taiwan and many others are also on promotional sale.

The promotional seats started Monday, March 23 and ends Sunday, March 29. Travel period is from September 1, 2015 to May 31, 2016.

Booking starts for as low as P201.12 ($4.49) – all-in or for 1-way travel.

Promo seats can be booked via AirAsia’s website; mobile app on iPhone and Android devices; or access the site via mobile.

Apart from the Piso Fare promo, AirAsiaGo, the budget carrier’s low cost airline, is also presenting savings up to 75% when promo seats are booked together with hotel accommodation. Savings up to 50% are also available for those who would book for hotel accommodation.

The same promo booking period and travel period applies.

AirAsia flies to 90 destinations. AirAsia Philippines also operates a fleet of 15 aircraft.

Malaysian mogul Tony Fernandes, who transformed a floundering carrier into Asia’s biggest budget airline, faced his first major crisis after an AirAsia plane went missing last year.

AirAsia Flight QZ8501 with 162 people onboard went down in stormy weather on December 28, 2014, in the Java sea during what was supposed to be a short trip from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore.

Rescuers called off the hunt for the remaining passengers on March 17 this year, almost 3 months after Flight QZ8501 went down in stormy weather as it flew from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore, killing all 162 people on board. – Rappler.com
