AirAsia has resumed its service between Bangkok (Don Mueang) and Macao. The route is operated four times weekly on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, with a 100% load factor on both the inbound and outbound legs of the inaugural service.

The inaugural flight was welcomed at Don Mueang Airport with a special ceremony and souvenirs for passengers.

“The figures reinforce that Macao remains a top destination for Thai travellers and that Thailand is still a popular place to visit for Chinese tourists,” said Ms. Tansita Akrarittipirom, Head of Commercial, AirAsia Thailand. “Macao is a major tourism destination for Thai people due to its fame as a place of spirituality, European architecture in Asia and leisure.

We received strong support from the Macao Government Tourism Office in opening this route, which will provide opportunities to stimulate the economies of both sides by spurring travel.”
