Guests Commend The AirAsia Online Booking and Self Check-In ServiceAirAsia Online Booking and Check-In Saves Time, Convenient AirAsia guests have commended the airlines’ latest addition to its self check-in facility – the web check-in that was made available Tuesday, 17 February 2009. With the new innovation, air travelers can now save time on pre-departure procedures by using the free- of-charge web check-in facility implemented across AirAsia and AirAsia X’s entire network. “This is a wonderful innovation. With the AirAsia online booking and check-in, I can perform check-in myself in the office. I do not have to worry about long queues at the counters anymore. It allows me to plan my trip better and saves me a lot of time, and it minimizes chances of missing my flight,” said Janice Kuek, an AirAsia guest from Kuala Lumpur when met at the Low Cost Carrier Terminal today. The web check-in facility allows AirAsia and AirAsia X guests to skip long check-in queues at the airport if they web check in at www.airasia.com from 48 to 4 hours before their scheduled flight departure. Web check in is available for all AirAsia and AirAsia X flights.  During web check-in, guests may also opt for AirAsia’s Baggage Supersize and “Pick A Seat,” new services that allow for carriage of more baggage weight and the option to choose seats, respectively. “Pick A Seat” has been smoothly implemented on all AirAsia flights beginning 17 February 2009. Kathleen Tan, Regional Head of Commercial, AirAsia, said, “At AirAsia, long check-in queues will be history. We have invested in technology that now offers AirAsia online booking and check-in services to guests flying across our network of over 114 routes to over 64 destinations. With our increasing use of technology to enhance services, we stay in step with the needs of our guests, who call for convenience in their travels.” AirAsia online booking and check-in is complemented by the self check-in kiosks that allow self-check in from 6 to 1 hour before departure. Airports that allow kiosk check-in include those in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Johor Bahru, Penang), Thailand (Chiang Mai, Hatyai, and Phuket) and Indonesia (Jakarta and Bali). With the latest addition of web check-in facility, AirAsia now boasts of three check-in options for its guests: via web at www.airasia.com, self check-in kiosk at selected airports, and through conventional check-in counters at airports. “We expect our host of check-in options to increase demand for AirAsia seats, especially among professionals and young adults who gravitate towards fast and efficient do-it-yourself electronic services. This increase in demand can only strengthen AirAsia’s lead among low-cost airlines in Asia. Our string of innovations brings ease of travel to guests from Southeast Asia, China, Bangladesh, India, Australia and UK. These electronic services are incredibly user-friendly; guests from all walks can easily use them,” Kathleen said. AirAsia Online Booking and Check-In Options 1.
