AirAsia has onboarded 18 partners for the AirAsia Boarding Pass Privileges campaign, with the aim of attracting international travellers to Thailand and offering them discounts on shops, restaurants and services worth up to 10,000 THB.

Foreign visitors with an AirAsia Boarding Pass indicating an international route into Thailand just need to present the pass and their passport to participating stores and services to enjoy amazing discounts* on activities, shopping, food and services from 22 March up to 31 December 2024 (partner terms and conditions apply).

This exciting privilege is in line with the airline’s recent “Takeover Thailand” campaign aimed at highlighting the ‘Land of Smiles’ as the preferred travel destination for travellers around the region.

Santisuk Klongchaiya, Chief Executive Officer of AirAsia Thailand said: “As AirAsia Thailand plays a key role in bringing international travellers into Thailand to help strengthen its economy, the airline has decided to deliver more benefits to its customers, adding value to its boarding pass by making it valid for discounts throughout each traveller’s visit. The additions will make travelling to Thailand much more fun and worthwhile.

“We thank the Tourism Authority of Thailand and all of our 18 partners for supporting this campaign and acknowledging the importance of promoting international travellers to Thailand. We are confident this effort will further stimulate Thailand’s economy for the benefit of everyone,” Santisuk said.

As a Group, AirAsia flies from 19 countries into Thailand on 65 routes to 52 destinations, including the most recently launched Kuala Lumpur-Pattaya route starting 17 June 2024.

Nattakit Tangpoonsinthana, Chief Marketing Officer of Central Pattana plc said “Central Pattana, Thailand’s number one real estate developer boasting 41 shopping centres, including 15 renowned tourist destinations across Thailand, extends a warm welcome to international tourists hailing from 19 countries, 65 routes and 52 destinations through AirAsia.
