AirAsia resumes services on Perth-Bali route

AirAsia Indonesia CEO Veranita Yosephine greets a guest in Bali on the inaugural flight.

Following a hiatus of over two years, AirAsia has resumed services on the popular Perth to Bali route. Passengers on the inaugural flight were treated to a special welcoming event, including gifts from Indonesian Tourism on arrival.

“The past two years have been extremely difficult for everyone, however things are finally returning to normal,” said Veranita Yosephine, CEO AirAsia Indonesia. “We are thrilled to return to West Australia. It was truly an incredible moment to welcome everyone onboard our first flight from Perth to Bali since March 2020. West Australians love Bali and as Asia’s low fare leader, we will continue to provide great value deals and special promotions for flights and accommodation, from our airasia Super App and the airasia website. Demand for our new services is very pleasing with many flights filling fast, and we will continue to review opportunities to increase services in the future to match this pent up demand.”

Kevin Brown, CEO Perth Airport, said it was fantastic to see another airline partner return: “Pre-COVID, AirAsia was offering three daily services to Bali Denpasar, and we are looking forward to working with the airline to increase its services in the coming months as more people seek out a winter travel escape and reconnect with Perth’s favourite tropical island destination.”
