AirAsia X recently extended its charter service to support Malaysian athletes competing at the now-ongoing ASEAN Para Games.
The airline ferried nearly 360 athletes and coaches from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok to compete from 15th to 27th January.
Operated under a special charter agreement between the National Sports Council of Malaysia and AirAsia X Berhad, this mission underscores the airline's commitment to inclusivity and national pride, ensuring the contingents travel together in comfort.
AirAsia X chief executive Benyamin Ismail said of the service: "It is an honour to fly our national heroes to Bangkok. These athletes represent the best of Malaysia. Their determination, resilience and spirit inspire us all. We are proud to play our part in supporting their journey to the ASEAN Para Games”.
This initiative also reflects AAX’s role beyond commercial aviation, serving as a proud partner in Malaysia’s sporting journey by championing equal opportunities for athletes at a regional stage.
