The new AirAsia sales office is aimed at meeting diverse demands of guests who prefer face-to-face, one-stop service with flexibility in payment methods both in cash and by credit card. This is AirAsia’s second sales outlet following the success of its first sales office on Chiang Mai’s Thaphae Road that was opened in June last year.
Khao San Road is one of the world’s best known and busiest tourist destinations. It is a favorite amongst young budget travelers and is a popular meeting point for back-packers arranging transport to their next destinations in Thailand and Indo China.
Tassapon Bijleveld, Chief Executive Officer of Thai AirAsia said, “This expansion portrays our confidence in Thailand’s tourism and strong commitment to the Thai market. We expect to increase the level of our guests’ satisfaction coherently by constantly providing the best products and services. The opening of this new convenient customer touch point will supplement AirAsia’s highly popular online service at www.airasia.com. With our low fares offering, we will continue to expand our service coverage into major cities across Thailand, especially tourist spots as we foresee the upcoming strong demand from these areas.”
At the opening ceremony of the new sales office, AirAsia also held a small handover ceremony of thirty full decorated Padthai carts to street vendors in Banglumpoo area. The ceremony was attended by VIPs including a member of senior officials from Tourism Authority of Thailand and Khao San Business Association as well as representatives from Phranakorn District Office. This latest initiative is part of AirAsia’s corporate social responsibility activity in community that they operate in.
AirAsia sales office at Khao San opens daily from 1100 hrs to 2200 hrs. For more information, please visit our website at www.airasia.com.
