AirAsia continues to expand its vast network from India to Malaysia, announcing the long-awaited resumption of flights from Visakhapatnam to the bustling Kuala Lumpur, as the only airline in Malaysia with direct connectivity between the two cities.

Tourists from near and far also often flock to the city to pay a visit to the iconic ‘Batu Caves’, an awe-inspiring limestone hill featuring a series of caves and cave temples, adorned with intricate Hindu sculptures and shrines.
To mark the resumption of this brand new route, flights to Kuala Lumpur from Visakhapatnam are on sale from now till 14 Feb 2024 with a starting fare of only INR4,999* all-in-one-way, and just RM199* from Kuala Lumpur to Visakhapatnam for travel between 26 April 2024 and 19 March 2025.
