AirAsia X flies to Maldives and Sri Lanka
Maldives is and always has been one of the top island destinations in the world and prior to this, Malaysian would pay premium prices just to get here.

Azran Osman-Rani, CEO of AirAsia X said, “We are excited to announce our latest route to Colombo as well as to the capital city of Maldives that is Male.
Our guests may now fly to Sri Lanka to take in the rich flavours and cultures that Colombo has to offer, and also to Maldives for a quick scenic and relaxing getaway.
Both places have their very own unique charm and we are pleased to offer our guests more destination choices for their travel and holiday getaways.”
With greater connectivity, more of our guests would be able to experience the crystalline blue waters of Male and experience the natural beauty of lush greens in Colombo and its surrounding regions.
We are confident that these two new routes will stimulate new travel demand and boost tourism and business potential for us and the two countries.” concluded Azran.

Sri Lanka which was once being colonized by the Portuguese, Dutch and British, has the advantage of offering a diversity of culture on a single island.
Famed for its natural beauty, the island is famously known as the pearl of the Indian Ocean.
Being a tropical country, it makes for a perfect holiday destination all year around. The climate is tropical and warm, due to the moderating effects of ocean winds.
Colombo, located on the west cost of the island, is the largest city and the commercial, industrial and cultural capital of Sri Lanka.
Visitors are spoiled for choice when visiting this island with the option to scuba dive, visit an elephant orphanage and a lagoon of singing fish, or explore a variety of jungle sites, shrines and temples.
Situated just 20 miles off India, the island formerly known as Ceylon is home to six world heritage sites.
