Malaysian budget carrier AirAsia X has lowered fares by 5% since June 15, with the airline reviewing its pricing week by week and adding back capacity as jet fuel prices drop, the company's CEO, Bo Lingam, said on Monday.
Lingam said the easing of tensions in the Middle East following the signing of an initial U.S.-Iran peace deal had brought welcome relief to the aviation industry, with fuel prices retreating sharply from their March highs.
