Fly-Thru With Airasia X
New service enables AirAsia X passengers on multiple city travel to do so without a transit visa, and enjoy the added
convenience of a single check-in service
When AirAsia X begins flying out of Christchurch from 1 April, passengers on multiple-flight travel through to Paris,
Mumbai, Bali, Jakarta, Bangkok, Taipei, London, New Delhi and Singapore will not have to apply for a transit visa with
Fly-Thru.
Fly-Thru is a new service that enables passengers on multiple-flight travel to perform a single check-in through to
their final airport of destination.
Fly-Thru is available to passengers travelling on selected AirAsia (short-haul) and all AirAsia X (long-haul) flights
transiting through Kuala Lumpur whose original and forward flights have a connecting time of between 90 minutes and six
hours.
With Fly-Thru, passengers can connect to their next flight to their intended destination without the need for
immigration clearance or a transit visa in Malaysia. On arrival in Kuala Lumpur, passengers will be given access to the
transit hall, which is directly connected to the departure hall and will need to be at the departure gate at least
20minutes before their connecting flight.
The service eliminates the need to re-check luggage when connecting to the next flight to the final destination.
AirAsia’s Regional Head of Commercial, Kathleen Tan said that Fly-Thru is the result of the airline’s continuous effort
to improve its service and offer convenience to low-cost air travel.
“While creativity and effectiveness continue to drive AirAsia forward, we will continue to seek innovative tools and
platforms that simplify air travel and provide a better service experience to all our passengers”
“Fly-Thru enables passengers to leverage on the strength of our network and connectivity to position Kuala Lumpur as the
gateway for travel across ASEAN and beyond,” Kathleen said.
Passengers who do not want to leverage on this service, will continue to be offered the option of point-to-point travel.
Instead of the convenience of a single check-in service, they will be required to check in separately for their original
and connecting flights and will not enjoy the check through service for their baggage. Passengers will also have to go
through the immigration clearance at the check-points in Kuala Lumpur before being allowed to proceed to the departure
gates for their connecting flights.
