The Australian reports that AirAsia X has thrown down the gauntlet to Jetstar by offering a A$166 all-inclusive one-way fare between Australia and KL for travel next year. The airline’s decision to turn up the heat came as it sold out its four times weekly services between the Gold Coast and KL until early next month. AirAsia X GM Australia Darren Wright said the low fares were a sign of the kind of competition the carrier would offer when it moved into Jetstar’s home base of Victoria, probably towards the end of next year.
