Kota Kinabalu: AirAsia remains a preferred choice as it raked in about RM70,000 in its three-day exclusive fare roadshow at the 1Borneo Hypermall here. Its Sabah Travel and Service Centre Head of Operations, Lesley Cynthia Godfrey, said the airline sold around 250 seats mostly to Kuala Lumpur and Tawau.
"For the roadshow AirAsia is offering a 20 per cent discount on all routes.
Most travellers picked July and November to fly probably because of the year-end school holidays.
"There are also customers who have booked for Osaka, Japan and Gold Coast in Australia on our AirAsia X," she said, Thursday.
Godfrey said via the roadshow customers could enjoy below RM1,000 fares for international destinations.
The roadshow tour, which began on May 29 ended here Thursday, kicked off in Miri (May 11) and will visit Bintulu, Eastern Plaza in Tawau (June 16-17), Sibu and finally Kuching.
Throughout the tour, visitors will have the opportunity to grab exclusive fares to selected destinations, apart from enjoying interactive games and activities for a chance to win goodies and prizes such as AirAsia and Queen Park Rangers merchandise.
Visitors could also sign up for the BIG Card, the global loyalty programme which allows guests to collect points to redeem free flights to over 75 destinations.
