Thai AirAsia, an associate company of AirAsia Berhad, has
launched its Chiang Mai hub, its third hub in Thailand after
Phuket and Bangkok. In addition to Chiang Mai-Singapore
flights, the hub will also feature daily direct flights to
Singapore and Hat Yai starting from 24 January this year.
Thai AirAsia has commented that this new Chiang
Mai-Singapore route will greatly enhance accessibility
between the two locations, where previously visitors
travelling to and fro the two locations had to transit in
Bangkok. The two new routes come shortly after the company
launched a four-weekly service between Bali and Phuket in
December 2010. |
