This initiative is part of AirAsia’s broader commitment, intended at encouraging travel whilst rewarding travellers, making air travel more accessible and affordable. The campaign also aims to complement Western Australia’s ‘Walking On A Dream’ global tourism brand, designed to elevate the state’s profile as a unique and aspirational destination.
This joint initiative also marks a renewed commitment to promote Perth as a must-visit destination for travellers seeking a unique mix of nature, culture and urban adventure, a short flight from Malaysia. Known as, ‘Australia’s Western Gateway’, Perth is one of the country’s most stunning and diverse cities, renowned for its stunning natural beauty, pristine coastline, inner city beaches, vibrant arts scene and laid-back charm.
…. Perth has long been one of AirAsia’s most popular destinations in Australia. …….. We’re excited to work hand-in-hand with Tourism Western Australia to reignite travel interest and provide more value-driven options for those eager to explore this stunning destination.Captain Fareh Mazputra,of AirAsia Malaysia CEO<b/cite>
His comments were echoed by Anneke Brown, Managing Director of Tourism Western Australia, who added that the partnership with AirAsia marks an exciting step forward in welcoming more Malaysian travellers to Western Australia.
…. With our Walking On A Dream tourism brand, we set out to showcase WA travel experiences that feel both otherworldly and are deeply rooted in nature and culture. Malaysia is one of our key international visitor markets, partly in thanks to its close proximity to Western Australia, Perth’s strong aviation links with Kuala Lumpur, and our shared time zones, and we look forward to sharing the magic of WA with more Malaysian travellers to come.
