 AirAsia X (AAX) has confirmed plans to resume
flights between Kuala Lumpur and Changsha, China.

Scheduled to take off on 5 July 2024, the airline will operate the route with four
flights per week every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.

Flight D7 352 is scheduled to depart from Kuala
Lumpur Airport (KUL) at 17:35, arriving at Changsha Airport (CSX)
at 22:30.

From Changsha, flight D7 353 is slated to leave at
23:45 and arrive at KUL at 04:20 the following day.

The resumption of flights to Changsha further solidifies the airline’s commitment to
expanding its presence in the Chinese market, and builds on the
resumption of
flights to Xi’an last week.

“In
2019, we carried over 140,000 guests to/from Changsha,
highlighting the robust demand for our services,” said Benyamin
Ismail, AirAsia X CEO. “Now with strong
pent up demand, we are fully dedicated to propelling the industry
forward to achieve the government’s international tourist arrival
target of 27 million this year. We remain committed to expanding
our network that not only maintains AirAsia Group’s market
dominance as the largest foreign best value carrier by capacity,
but also enables AAX to remain committed in our quest to stimulate
and make air travel affordable for everyone.”

Changsha marks AAX’s sixth direct route to China,
complementing AirAsia Malaysia’s (flight code AK) extensive
network of 12 destinations within Greater China including
Guangzhou, Guilin, Hong Kong SAR, Kaohsiung, Kunming, Macao SAR,
Nanning, Quanzhou, Shantou, Shenzhen, Taipei and Wuhan.

All Malaysians are eligible for visa-free entry to
China for tourist visits of up to 15 days until 30 November 2024.
