AirAsia launches Hong Kong - Medan Flights

AirAsia has launched its first Indonesian destination from Hong Kong with the inaugural flight to Polonia International Airport (MES) in Medan, Indonesia.

Medan, Indonesia has been building a name for itself as an escape to city life with the stunning scenic attractions it offers. Being the nation’s third largest city, Medan is the home to a vast variety of cuisines, the harbor of fruits of an energized milieu, and is where the spectacular Lake Toba, the largest volcanic lake in South-East Asia is situated.

Kathleen Tan, AirAsia’s Regional Head of Commercial said, “We are confident that this new route will stimulate more travel between these two destinations and enhance tourism activities. We are optimistic that our low fares and world class services will continue to induce more travel demand and contribute to the economies of both nations. Medan is a new hub to AirAsia which connects the world to other Indonesian destinations of Bandung and Surabaya, and through Hong Kong, Indonesians are able to hop onto other parts of Southern China. We are proud to see its high sustainability.”
