AirAsia’s sale proves to be a hit

12 November 2009

PETALING JAYA: AirAsia’s website registered 300 million hits in the first 11 hours of its Free Seats campaign, its regional commercial head Kathleen Tan said.

She also noted that at least 300,000 seats were sold in less than 24 hours.

In a statement yesterday, she said AirAsia’s server capacity had been doubled to cope with the congestion on www.airasia.com.

“The rush for the free seats is a real testament that today’s consumers are online savvy and embracing the low-cost revolution happening in Asia.”

To those who had not succeeded in making their bookings, she urged them to keep trying for the remaining 700,000 free seats.

The campaign ends on Nov 15.
