AirAsia eyes Singapore base
AirAsia chief executive Tony Fernandes has said he is “keen” to operate in Singapore, and will soon base some aircraft there in a move that may see an AirAsia Singapore launch.
Recent advertisements for cabin crew positions at AirAsia Singapore are the first step, Fernandes told Dow Jones Newswires in an interview.
Malaysia-based budget carrier AirAsia would be “night-stopping” aircraft in Singapore in order to make morning flights out of Changi airport.
Australia’s Qantas is also rumoured to be looking at options to base a fleet of its aircraft in Singapore.
