AirAsia, the World’s Best Low-Cost Carrier, is expanding further into China with the introduction of its latest direct flights between Manila and Shenzhen starting December 1, 2018.
AirAsia Philippines CEO Dexter Comendador said, “We are delighted to offer new and exciting places to visit this coming Christmas season. Travelers from Manila would be delighted to experience Shenzhen’s modern metropolis and marvel at the world’s largest electric bus fleet, massive malls, contemporary buildings and amusement parks.”
Shenzhen is located in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) metropolitan area and is one of the major economic hubs of China. Known as “China’s Silicon Valley”, this place is home to some of the top startup and tech businesses in the world including the headquarters of popular global companies such as Huawei, BYD and ZTE. Manila – Shenzhen will be AirAsia’s second direct flight to the southern city that links Hong Kong to mainland China following the launch of Cebu – Shenzhen in April.
“China is an important market for us and we are looking to expand our network further and connect Filipino travelers to new and exciting business and leisure cities,” Comendador added.
