"The Skytrax best low-cost airline award marks a major milestone for AirAsia as
the award is acknowledged the world over, and the only award to be conferred
based on independent judgments of our very own guests. The fact that the winner
is not selected by the industry or any self- interested committee, but by actual
passengers who flew the respective airlines makes this award even more
meaningful.

our high standards are maintained and passenger expectations are exceeded
worldwide."
