Video: Azran Osman-Rani, CEO of AirAsia X, discusses growth plans

18-Jan-12 6:09 PM

In this video interview with CAPA, AirAsia X CEO Azran Osman-Rani discusses what is next for the low-cost long-haul carrier after finally securing a Kuala Lumpur-Sydney route and withdrawing services from Europe and India.

Mr Osman-Rani outlined the carrier's plans to focus on developing its existing network, with future expansion to centre around increasing frequency to existing Asian destinations with an ultimate aim of double daily frequencies across its network.

Ruling out plans to enter any new countries in the near-future with the potential exception of through partnerships like charter operations, Mr Osman-Rani noted the appeal of operating to destinations with a large catchment area, saying that the benefits of a large catchment outweigh the cost disadvantage of operating to such airports.
