January 20, 2026

LOW-COST carrier AirAsia Philippines expects improved operations and route expansion following the completion of AirAsia X Berhad's acquisition of AirAsia Berhad and AirAsia Aviation Group Ltd. from Capital A.

- By Ashley Erika O. Jose Reporter

"This integration is expected to improve connectivity, more efficient operations, and the possibility to introduce new routes or better schedules depending on demand, and hopefully, additional aircraft as the Group is currently ordering more units to scale our reach," AirAsia Philippines President and Chief Executive Officer Suresh Bangah said in a Viber message to BusinessWorld on Monday.

The transaction brings all AirAsia-branded airlines under a single platform, the AirAsia Group, while Capital A will focus on non-aviation businesses.
