KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 27 — AirAsia has assured passengers that all its flights are operating as scheduled despite the effects of tropical storm Senyar, with the airline activating heightened monitoring and crisis coordination to ensure uninterrupted travel and passenger safety.
It said the storm, as highlighted by the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia), is moving towards the western coast of Peninsular Malaysia from tonight until November 29, bringing continuous heavy rainfall, strong winds and unstable weather conditions.
Senyar is expected to impact states including Kedah, Penang, Selangor, the Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya Federal Territories, as well as Johor.
"We would like to assure our guests that all operational measures are in place to support uninterrupted travel where possible. All flights are currently operating as scheduled, and we are closely monitoring the situation with the relevant authorities to maintain safe flying conditions,” AirAsia said in a statement tonight.
It urged passengers to stay alert, as adverse weather may cause flooding and could potentially affect flights or airport operations.
“Those travelling to or from the affected areas within Peninsular Malaysia during this period are advised to arrive early at the airport and stay updated on their flights via the AirAsia MOVE app (airasia.com/flightstatus), the AskBo chatbot, and their registered email for the latest information," AirAsia said.
