AirAsia X (D7, Kuala Lumpur International) is to establish a longhaul hub out of Denpasar after it's new subsidiary, Indonesia AirAsia X (IAAX), was granted an Air Services Licence by the Indonesian Directorate General of Civil Aviation. A 49-51 partnership between AirAsia X and PT Kirana Anugerah Perkasa (PTKAP), the new carrier is now in the process of applying for its Air Operator's Certificate. According to the terms of the airline's Malaysian stock market filing, IAAX will use its Indonesian sister-carrier, Indonesia AirAsia (QZ, Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta), to provide it with feeder traffic from its extensive local network as well as from north Asia and Australia. Bali, it said, is a large tourism and travel market, with no current long-haul low-cost operator based there. Once established, Bali will be AirAsia X's third hub after Kuala Lumpur International and Bangkok Don Mueang with A330-300s to be based in Denpasar.
