KUALA LUMPUR, 19 January 2026 – Asia's best travel booking app, AirAsia MOVE (MOVE) kicks off the year by announcing its first global airline partnership of 2026 with Air Arabia, the Middle East and North Africa’s first and largest budget carrier operator. 

Through this partnership, the budget carrier has authorised MOVE to distribute its flight inventory on the MOVE platform, connecting millions of users to the airline’s extensive network across the Middle East, North Africa, Europe, Caucasus, and Southeast Asia directly. The partnership underscores MOVE’s ongoing commitment to making travel more affordable for everyone, while supporting its growth as a leading OTA within and beyond the Asean region.

Nadia Omer, CEO of AirAsia MOVE said, “We’re thrilled to welcome Air Arabia, to join our growing network of direct airline partners. This partnership further enhances our mission to bring even more trusted and affordable travel options to our users. It also strengthens our commitment to connecting travellers across regions with ‘Travel More For Less’ experiences.”

Yasmin Ahmad Shamsuddin, Country Manager for Malaysia at Air Arabia, added, “We are pleased to extend our flight network to more travellers across Southeast Asia and beyond with over 15 million MOVE users, offering them greater opportunities to explore the Middle East and Europe at affordable fares. This collaboration not only enhances convenience in booking Air Arabia flights but also provides travellers with access to a wider range of travel products and services.”
