AirAsia and Tourism Western Australia (TWA) have officially launched a significant partnership aimed at boosting travel between Malaysia and Perth — one of AirAsia’s key destinations in Australia.
As part of this collaboration, AirAsia is offering a generous RM400,000 worth of flight discounts for travel from Kuala Lumpur to Perth, with each voucher valued at RM200. This exciting initiative reflects AirAsia’s ongoing efforts to promote travel while rewarding its customers, further strengthening the airline’s mission to make flying more affordable and accessible.
The campaign also aligns with Western Australia’s inspirational global tourism brand, ‘Walking On A Dream’, which aims to raise the state’s profile as a distinctive and desirable travel destination. To redeem the RM200 discount, travellers simply need to enter the promo code ‘AAPERTWA’ when booking their flights between 14 May and 31 July 2025, for travel up to 31 December 2025. The offer is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
This joint initiative also marks a renewed commitment to promote Perth as a must-visit destination for travellers seeking a unique mix of nature, culture and urban adventure — all just a short flight away from Malaysia. Known as, ‘Australia’s Western Gateway’, Perth is one of the country’s most stunning and diverse cities, renowned for its stunning natural beauty, pristine coastline, inner city beaches, vibrant arts scene and laid-back charm.
Dato’ Captain Fareh Mazputra, CEO of AirAsia Malaysia said: “Perth has long been one of AirAsia’s most popular destinations in Australia. Since the route was launched in November 2007, we’ve flown millions of guests to the city and for many Malaysians, it truly is our ‘home away from home’. We’re excited to work hand-in-hand with Tourism Western Australia to reignite travel interest and provide more value-driven options for those eager to explore this stunning destination.”
Anneke Brown, Managing Director of Tourism Western Australia added: “This partnership with AirAsia marks an exciting step forward in welcoming more Malaysian travellers to Western Australia. With our Walking On A Dream tourism brand, we set out to showcase WA travel experiences that feel both otherworldly and are deeply rooted in nature and culture. Malaysia is one of our key international visitor markets, partly in thanks to its close proximity to Western Australia, Perth’s strong aviation links with Kuala Lumpur, and our shared time zones, and we look forward to sharing the magic of WA with more Malaysian travellers to come.”
AirAsia has been steadily expanding its footprint in Australia since 2007. Both AirAsia Malaysia and its sister carrier, AirAsia X (flight code D7), operate direct flights from Kuala Lumpur to four Australian cities: Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, and soon Darwin — with four weekly flights to Darwin set to begin on 27 June 2025. Together, these routes offer a total of 22 weekly flights.
The AirAsia Group also includes Indonesia AirAsia (flight code QZ), which currently operates three weekly flights to Darwin and Cairns, and up to 28 weekly flights to Perth from Bali. Additionally, Indonesia AirAsia is preparing to launch a new route to Adelaide, with four weekly flights starting from 25 June 2025.
*The promo code is valid only for the base fare and applies to AirAsia return flights between Kuala Lumpur and Perth. The promo code ‘AAPERTWA’ will need to be keyed in at the homepage. Each RM200 promo code will be applied as RM100 for the KUL–PER sector and RM100 for the PER–KUL sector. Any unused balance will be forfeited and is not redeemable for future use. A total of 2,000 promo codes will be allocated for the campaign period from 14 May to 31 July 2025, with a monthly cap of 666 codes on a first-come, first-served basis.
