Fly to Australia for only RM10.00 or less

Come early September, for less than RM10, you will be able to fly from here to Australia when low-cost carriers AirAsia X and Jetstar begin their separate operations.

AirAsia X, Malaysia’s first long-haul budget airline, is expected to start its first flight between here and an Australian east-coast city on Sept 8 while a day later, Sept 9, Jetstar (the low-cost subsidiary of Qantas) will start its operations from here to Sydney.

Jetstar is offering fares from RM88 for one-way travel in September and February. Taxes and surcharges will come up to RM409.50. Their one-way fare for October and November is RM488 excluding taxes and surcharges. Jetstar's fares will be about 20% cheaper than those offered by full-service carriers.

For comparison, the cheapest return economy fare on Malaysia Airlines is RM2,734.80.
