If you’ve ever tried planning a multi-country trip across Southeast Asia, you know the drill. Too many tabs open, too many airlines, too many “why is this so confusing?” moments. The new Emirates Asia Pass is giving major hope for travelling across the continent without the hassle of multiple bookings.
Emirates Just Dropped A Travel Pass That Makes Southeast Asia Feel Easier To Explore
Emirates has rolled out its brand-new Asia Pass, and honestly, it might be the smartest thing for travellers. This pass lets you book and customise your entire Southeast Asia itinerary under one ticket. Think Thailand today, Vietnam next week, and maybe a cheeky Singapore stop before heading home. You can pick one to 10 flights within the region on one booking.
One Ticket And Maximum Flexibility To Travel
Emirates understands that your travel plans might change sometimes. Hence, it lets you tweak your Asia Pass flights for just AED55 (USD 15). Can you imagine?.
Plus, whether you book directly with Emirates or go through your favourite travel agent, the pass is all yours.
Where You Can Go
This is where things get fun. The pass covers Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia, Singapore and Laos. With Emirates’ own flights plus partnerships with Bangkok Airways and Batik Air Malaysia, the map opens up even more.
From Dubai with Emirates, you can fly into hotspots like Bali, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Phuket, and more. They also cover transit routes like Da Nang via Bangkok or Phnom Penh via Singapore.
