Grab the great deal! Airasia X is now flying to Busan of Korea
Good news to all budget travelers! Airasia X is introducing their new destination in Korea, in addition of Seoul. Starting from 15th July 2013, Airasia X is now flying to Busan, the second largest city of Korea (or South Korea if you are confused it with North Korea that started the rhetorical war talk lately).
All-in fare starts from RM199 for Economy seats and RM699 for Premium Flatbed seats. Booking period is from 17th until 28th April 2013, for flights travel in between 15th July 2013 and 30th April 2014.
Busan is famous for its beaches, fish markets, and being the gateway for visitors who wish to go to Jeju Island or Fukuoka of Japan at the South. If you have been to Japan, Seoul is the metropolitan capital city of Korea just like Tokyo of Japan, while Busan is where you can experience the true Korea as how Kyoto of Japan is described.
What really caught my eyes is the superb low return airfare to Busan which starts from only RM437 all-in! It is RM200 cheaper than the lowest fares to Seoul! From Busan, travelers can virtually visit to any part of Korea, and it is only 3 hours away from Seoul via KTX. If you are planning to visit both Korea and Japan, Busan is the preferred arriving and departing port as international ferries to and from Japan start here.
I bought my flight to Seoul last month for RM800. If I got to know Busan flights are this cheap, I would wait until now! Hurry up! Book them now before the price being revised. Just put our fingers crossed the Northern nation will not launch any missiles during this critical moment!
