AirAsia, one of the major budget arilines in Southeast Asia, is offerning a one-month pass for about $148 that allows travelers to fly free among 10 Southeast Asian cities. Airport taxes, etc. are extra.
The pass is designed to increase tourism in the area, but also to bolster AirAsia’s market share as more and more budget competitors enter the market. The expectation is that next year, when the 10-member ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) bloc creates a common market, competition will increase further. MORE
