If Europe has Ryanair, Asia has AirAsia, same low-cost DNA, better food. Founded by Tony Fernandes, AirAsia is now Asia’s biggest budget airline, flying to 160+ destinations across Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, India and beyond.

Let’s not pretend. easyJet has been the chaotic neutral of the skies for years now.

Sometimes they’re less than brilliant – like that other time when my “priority boarding” line was longer than the queue for Wimbledon tickets.
