The highly prestigious award were presented to Tan Sri Tony Fernandes, AirAsia’s Group Chief Executive Officer at a gala dinner and presentation ceremony attended by the very top of the world’s airline management.

ATW Airline Industry Achievement Awards, is the longest running and most respected airline industry awards event. These awards go to airlines that have distinguished themselves through outstanding performance, innovation, and service.

ATW have attributed their choice of AirAsia as the winner of the “Value Airline of the Year” category due to the low cost carrier’s trailblazing efforts in the low-cost aviation industry through innovative solutions, efficient processes and a passionate approach to the business of connecting people, and serving the underserved markets.

Geoffrey Thomas, Chief Editor of Air Transport World commented, “AirAsia continues to confound analysts with its success, while its one time naysayers have not been heard from in years. Tony Fernandes is to be congratulated for his persistence in the face of a host of obstacles to develop an airline that is the talk of every boardroom and government in the region. Where once a farmer would look up at a vapor trail with envy, now that vapor trail is a reminder to book his family’s next holiday on AirAsia.”
