AirAsia is a low-cost airline from Malaysia that offers domestic and international flights to more than 400 cities in 25 countries. It is the first airline in Asia to offer ticketless travel so all bookings, scheduling and transactions are done online. If it's your first time booking a flight online, checking flight details can be confusing. However, Air Asia makes it easy for you to review flight information because you only need to visit the airline's official website or contact the airline directly.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Checking Orders Over the Internet
Step 1. Access the AirAsia website
Visit AirAsia's official webpage and use the login option under the “My Account” section. Enter the email address and password used to book your flight, or log in using your Facebook account for faster access.
You need to create an account before you can check your booking with AirAsia
Step 2. Create an account
If you previously made a booking by telephone or a second party affiliate site such as Expedia, you will need to create a user account on the AirAsia website before being able to check the booking via the internet. From the main page of the AirAsia website, click on the "My Account" drop-down menu and select the "Sign Up Now" option. Enter the requested information and select the desired language to receive updates. You can also create an account using a Facebook account to save time.
After registering an account through the AirAsia website, you can check your booking and flight details at any time via your computer or mobile device
Step 3. Review the account
Once logged into your account, you can use the “My Bookings” page to view your scheduled flights, departure and arrival times, financial transactions and other accommodations that have been booked with your flight.
- From the AirAsia website, you can also confirm your booking, choose your seat, and track your lost or left luggage.
- Bookings can be changed or canceled as needed through your account.
Step 4. Check email
Alternatively, you can check flight status and booking details online via private email. After booking your flight through AirAsia, you will receive a confirmation email with flight details and an itinerary link. Click the link to access an itinerary document with a summary of all booking information.
The summary email also includes a list of things to bring or pay attention to regarding the flight, such as travel laws, airline policies, boarding hours, and a reminder to bring the appropriate identification documents with you when you depart
Step 5. Print order details
Open the itinerary attachment in the email or select the flight information in the “My Bookings” section of the AirAsia website, then print the page. Now, you have a physical copy of your order details that you can read back whenever needed.
- If you don't have a printer, write down the relevant information on a piece of paper or a notebook.
- You can also log in to the mobile version of the AirAsia website via your smartphone and use the screenshot feature to take a snapshot of your itinerary or account summary.
Method 2 of 2: Contacting AirAsia Representative to Confirm Booking
Step 1. Contact the company directly
AirAsia operates several telephone service centers in Asia, Australia and Europe with agents tasked with providing information and answering customer inquiries. Visit the AirAsia website or search for information about the airline to get the phone number of the nearest AirAsia call center.
AirAsia representatives come from different cultural backgrounds and are usually fluent in English to serve a customer base in the United States or English speaking countries. However, AirAsia also provides services in Indonesian
Step 2. Request booking information from an AirAsia representative
AirAsia agents are ready to share flight and account details for customers who need assistance. Ask the agent for the required information.
You may be asked to provide your flight number and/or proof of identity before an AirAsia representative provides the information by phone call
Step 3. Change or cancel flights via call
Notify the AirAsia representative of any necessary changes or cancellations. Usually, the airline can make adjustments via a phone call.
Ask the agent to confirm the status of the pre-booked flight to ensure there are no “surprises” at the time of departure
Step 4. Record the information provided
Write down important details like flight number, departure time, gate number and seat so you don't have to check your booking summary repeatedly, unless you need to make changes.
Tips
- AirAsia promotes ticketless travel and encourages customers to manage all booking details via the internet. If you don't know how to manage a trip over the internet, use the services of a travel agent to make a booking and confirm it with AirAsia.
- Create an account on the AirAsia website to easily log in and check bookings and account summaries.
- Make sure you are sure with the flight details before departure time.
Warning
- Due to its low cost and high traffic, AirAsia tends to make frequent changes and run into schedule problems. Keep this in mind when you book a flight with AirAsia.
- AirAsia markets itself as an economy airline with minimum service standards (no-frills). This means you can pay a lower price for travel, but not get the luxury of preparation and during the flight. You will get the usual services offered by most airlines for free, such as seating arrangements, snacks and drinks.
