AirAsia X confirmed its first-ever U.S. destination. The long-haul budget airline will launch flights to Hawai’i starting June 28, and will operate four flights per week from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to Honolulu (HNL) via Osaka (ITM).
“This is the game-changing destination we have all been waiting for. By connecting ASEAN and North Asia to the U.S. with our world-class low fares offering, we will make it possible for those who could only dream of a vacation across the Pacific to take that trip,” said Datuk Kamarudin Meranun, CEO, AirAsia X Group.
To celebrate its new route, AirAsia X will offer fares from $112 through Feb. 26, for travel June 28–Feb. 6, 2018. Travellers looking for a more comfortable flight can upgrade to enjoy AirAsia X’s premium flat bed from $674, one of the lowest fares to Hawai’i from Asia.
