AirAsia gave away free flights to all Asean Olympic medallists at a gala event held in the JW Marriot Hotel in Bangkok.

Also in attendance were AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes, AirAsia country CEOs, Thailand’s Vice Minister for Tourism and Sports, Associate Professor Chavanee Tongroach as well as government and sports officials from each Asean country with a podium finisher.

Gold medal winners received a lifetime of free flights, while silver and bronze medal winners received five and three years’ worth of free flights respectively.

Medallists were given a special AirAsia BIG card in gold, silver and bronze that allows them to fly to any of the more than 120 destinations within AirAsia and AirAsia X’s extensive network in Asia, Australia, the Middle East and Africa.

AirAsia Group CEO Tony Fernandes said, “We are very honoured to be able to present free flights to the men and women who have inspired the region with their sporting excellence.

“Too often, sports is overlooked in Asean but their achievements show we can be the world’s best when we set our mind to it, together with the right support and infrastructure.”

He added, “Athletes will be able to make use of the free flights whenever they want, as many times as they want. No ifs, no buts, no funny conditions. We sincerely hope they will enjoy flying with us.”
