The guests on the inaugural flight AK 902 from Singapore were received and greeted by Terengganu State Tourism & Culture Committee Chairman, YB Dato’ Mohd Jidin Shafee and AirAsia Berhad’s Head of Commercial, Mr Spencer Lee upon arrival at the Sultan Mahmud Airport, Kuala Terengganu.

With Visit Malaysia Year 2014 (VMY2014) going on, this new direct route will provide the best opportunity for tourists to discover the various attractions that Terengganu has to offer. With just a short flight, they will be able to experience the diverse cultures, cuisines and warmth of Malaysians.”
