AirAsia has been forced to axe routes from Australia to Bali because of surging jet fuel costs.
The company announced Friday the Melbourne to Denpasar and Adelaide to Denpasar routes will fly for the last time on June 18.
“This decision has been made in response to the sustained increase in global jet fuel prices caused by the ongoing geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East,” Indonesia AirAsia general manager Achmad Sadikin Abdurachman said.
“This operating environment has led to the need to refocus our network on routes that remain operationally viable at this time.
“AirAsia understands the suspension impacts long-made travel plans and we apologise for the inconvenience this decision has caused, and we want to thank our guests for their support and understanding.”
