AirAsia Zest eyes direct flights to Bali, Jakarta

Low-cost carrier AirAsia Zest is considering flying direct to Bali and Jakarta in Indonesia to serve Filipino professionals residing in those areas.

“There are very few direct flights to Indonesia from here,” Marianne Hontiveros, chairman of AirAsia Philippines, told reporters on the sidelines of the AirAsia Zest livery event held at the Solaire Casino complex in Manila on Wednesday. “We also have an affiliate there, Airasia Indonesia. So we can feed off each other.”
