Kuala Lumpur: AirAsia has resumed its online check-in operation at 2 pm today, after the carrier was thrown into turmoil by a global IT glitch since late afternoon yesterday.
AirAsia deputy group chief executive officer (airline operation) Datuk Captain Chester Voo said the low-cost carrier will continue to monitor the situation.
He advised passengers to arrive early at the airport to avoid potential delays and long queues.
“Regardless of the challenge, we are extremely resilient because it’s important for us to put people first, as they pay money to fly, although the disruption is global and not caused by us,” he told Bernama.
