AirAsia Group chief executive Tony Fernandes says the airline could soon introduce flights to the US West Coast.
Fernandes told CNBC the possibility of mainland US flights is ‘not too far away,’ with Los Angeles on the radar.
The company’s long haul unit AirAsia X starts flying to Honolulu, its first ever US destination in June.
That service departs from its main hub at Kuala Lumpur via Japan.
AirAsia X also serves the Middle East and remains keen to restart nonstop services to Europe once it has suitable long range aircraft.
Speaking on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum for ASEAN in Cambodia, Fernandez also said plans are progressing for the public listings of its Indonesian and Philippines regional short haul units.
