AirAsia: Now not everyone can fly

I knew about the fact that AirAsia doesn’t use the sky-bridges at the airports (except at the KLIA) before but it never cross my mind that such a missing ‘frill’ would cause so much difficulty to special group of people whom we always make sure their needs are taken care of whenever and wherever they […]
