Tony also thanked the 2.9 million people that have accepted the refunds in the form of a credit shell. He said that’s the best support that anyone can give him and his airline, and he will be forever be grateful.
He said AirAsia has carried 600 million people and created hundreds of thousands of jobs. He said “COVID-19 is not our fault, we are not bad people. It has obviously affected us badly like many other airlines but we are still trying to do our best to keep as many of our staff.”
Tony shared that 10% of their staff have to let go and many of their staff are on less pay. This was done to try to keep the airline alive so that they can come back strong.
Meanwhile, Tony also said that AirAsia X is currently in a very deep financial difficulty because it couldn’t fly anywhere and it has to deal with unfair competition. The long-haul low-cost carrier is going through a corporate restructuring to survive.
