Beginning from 11 June 2013, Malaysia based popular budget airline AirAsia will introduce more flights from Kuala Lumpur to Lombok, an Indonesian island east of Bali, increasingly getting popular tourist destination as an "unspoiled Bali". AirAsia will fly daily between Kuala Lumpur and Lombok instead of current four times a week frequency. To celebrate the the launch of the daily Lombok flights, AirAsia is offering promotional flights (all-in-fare) from as low as RM 99 one-way from Kuala Lumpur to Lombok. Promotional fares for return flights from Lombok – Kuala Lumpur are also offered from as low as RM 102 one-way. The promotion is valid for booking period from now until 19 May 2013, for the travel period from 11 June 2013 – 30 April 2014.
AirAsia has launched the direct flights to Lombok as the 15th Indonesian destination from Kuala Lumpur in August 2012. Located just east of Bali, Lombok in many ways lives up to or exceeds the promotional term, "an unspoiled Bali". With beautiful beaches, enchanting waterfalls, the large, looming volcano of Mount Rinjani combined with relatively few tourists, Lombok is indeed the paradisaical tropical island that many people still mistakenly imagine Bali to be now.
Visitors can ride the waves by surfing in Tanjung A’an or experience a dreamlike and picture perfect underwater world by snorkelling and diving around one of the many Gilis off the coast of Lombok, such as Gili Trawangan.
Watching the sunset, while walking on untouched sandy beaches at Senggigi, presents perfect romantic moments for honeymooners. After a day of rigorous activities, revitalize by enjoying a relaxing massage at one of the many spas in Lombok. Continue having fun into the night by visiting local seaside nightspots along Senggigi Beach, enjoying a drink and trendy music while being caressed by the cool sea breeze.
For food lovers and those with a keen taste for full-bodied spicy cuisines, Lombok is famous for halal Sasak dishes such as Ayam Taliwang, Sate Ikan Tanjung and Pelecing Kangkung. White rice—a Sasak staple--is regularly served together with the scrumptious dishes.
Passionate shoppers will find Lombok as a trove for unique woven fabrics, exquisite pearls and fine potteries. These local products are available for purchase at dedicated galleries, or for an authentic buying experience, obtain it directly at the villages cum cultural centres where they are produced.
Lombok is a unique and immaculate destination, which will definitely satisfy diverse holiday preferences. It is a must for those looking for adventure, serenity or a romantic getaway.
Besides contributing towards reinforcing Malaysian – Indonesian bilateral ties through direct air connection to various destinations of both nations—promoting economic gains and enhance business and tourism activities—this latest effort by AirAsia is set to bring in more business and leisure travellers into Lombok and presents unparalleled access to Kuala Lumpur for Lombok’s population.
