AirAsia today celebrated its service resumption from Kuala Lumpur to Pattaya, Thailand’s eighth largest city famed for its beautiful beaches, water sports activities and entertainment venues.
The inaugural flight with a close to 90 per cent load factor, departed from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (Terminal 2) at 11.20 AM and landed in U-Tapao–Rayong–Pattaya International Airport at 12.05 PM local time. Guests onboard flight AK840 were celebrated with a water cannon salute upon arrival in Pattaya and warmly received by AirAsia Allstars and representatives from the Tourism Authority of Thailand.
The reinstatement of the route to Pattaya marks the airline’s ninth direct route to Thailand - from Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru and Penang - following Bangkok (Don Mueang International Airport), Bangkok (Suvarnabhumi Airport), Krabi, Chiang Mai, Phuket and Hatyai.
