KUALA LUMPUR, 19 May 2025: AirAsia and Tourism Western Australia (TWA) are partnering with a joint campaign to boost travel between Malaysia and Perth, a key Australian destination for AirAsia out of its Kuala Lumpur hub.
As part of the partnership, AirAsia is giving away MYR400,000 in discount codes for flights from Kuala Lumpur to Perth, with each code valued at MYR200. The campaign also complements Western Australia’s ‘Walking On A Dream’ global tourism brand, designed to elevate the state’s profile as a unique and aspirational destination.
To benefit from the MYR200 discount, AirAsia guests must key in the promo code ‘AAPERTWA’ when booking their flights until the cut-off date of 31 July 2025 for travel until 31 December 2025.*
AirAsia Malaysia CEO Fareh Mazputra said: “Perth has long been one of AirAsia’s most popular destinations in Australia. Since the route was launched in November 2007, we’ve flown millions of guests to the city, and for many Malaysians, it truly is our ‘home away from home’. We’re excited to work hand-in-hand with Tourism Western Australia to reignite travel interest and provide more value-driven options for those eager to explore this stunning destination.”
Tourism Western Australia Managing Director Anneke Brown added: “With our Walking On A Dream tourism brand, we set out to showcase WA travel experiences that feel both otherworldly and are deeply rooted in nature and culture. Malaysia is one of our key international visitor markets, partly thanks to its close proximity to Western Australia, Perth’s strong aviation links with Kuala Lumpur, and our shared time zones, and we look forward to sharing the magic of WA with more Malaysian travellers to come.”
AirAsia Group flies direct from Kuala Lumpur to three destinations in Australia: Perth, Melbourne, and Sydney. It will add Darwin (with four weekly flights to commence on 27 June 2025). That will give the group 22 weekly flights to destinations in Australia. The group also comprises Indonesia AirAsia (QZ), which serves Darwin and Cairns three times weekly and Perth up to 28 weekly from Bali. Indonesia AirAsia will soon also fly to Adelaide (with four new weekly services commencing 25 June).
*The promo code is valid only for the base fare and applies to AirAsia return flights between Kuala Lumpur and Perth. The promo code ‘AAPERTWA’ will need to be keyed in at the homepage.
Each MYR200 promo code will be applied as RM100 for the KUL–PER sector and MYR100 for the PER–KUL sector. Any unused balance will be forfeited and is not redeemable for future use. A total of 2,000 promo codes will be allocated for the campaign until 31 July 2025, with a monthly cap of 666 codes on a first-come, first-served basis.
