Kumpiyansa si AirAsia Chief Executive Officer Tony Fernandes na kayang maabot ang target na siyam na milyong turista na bibisita sa bansa.
“We are so bullish because the Philippines is probably one of the best-kept secrets, its such a beautiful country. We do believe that we can increase regional connectivity across AirAsia’s Filipino hubs and really bring Asean into the Philippines,” ani Fernandes.
Sinabi pa nito na handa silang magbuhos ng karagdagang puhunan sa bansa, na magbibigay daan naman sa paglikha ng mga bagong trabaho.
Pagbabahagi nito, base sa mga datos mas pinipili na ngayon ng mga tao ang mabilis at malapit na biyahe kaysa bumisita sa mga malalayong destinasyon.
“We’re seeing a huge pent-up demand for travel which gives me a huge amount of confidence. I think our strength is that we are also very strong in secondary and tertiary cities and in providing connectivity. So that is adding growth,” sabi pa ng kilalang Malaysian businessman.
