Introducing PPE Suits for Cabin Crews

Low-cost carrier AirAsia has unveiled new Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to be worn by its cabin crew during the COVID-19 pandemic. Designed in collaboration with Filipino fashion designer Puey Quinones, the suits, which were launched on April 24 during a recovery flight from Bangkok to Manila, embrace the airline's signature red-hot colour and have reportedly been approved by the Philippines' Department of Health.

AirAsia said the safety and wellbeing of its guests is its top priority and the airline is complying with advice and regulations from the local government, civil aviation authorities, global and local health agencies, including the World Health Organization. Further, AirAsia said it is closely monitoring the situation and reserves the right to announce further policies according to the latest developments.

On April 17th, AirAsia announced that the airline is set to resume scheduled domestic flights commencing with Malaysia on Wednesday (April 29), followed by Thailand on Friday (May 1), India (May 4), Indonesia (May 7) and the Philippines (May 16), subject to approval from authorities.
