KUALA LUMPUR, 8 November 2024: Tourism Malaysia welcomes the resumption of AirAsia\u2019s direct flights connecting Dalat, Vietnam (DLI) to Kuala Lumpur (KUL).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dalat flights resumed earlier this week, plus a brand new route was introduced on 2 November from Kuala Lumpur to Chiang Rai (CEI), in North Thailand. It\u2019s the only international flight to Chiang Rai to be established since pre-Covid 2019, when various Chinese airlines flying from major cities in mainland China served the Thai destination that shares river borders with neighbours Myanmar and Laos.<\/p>\n\n\n
