AIRASIA, the Kuala Lumpur based budget airline, has introduced a daily service between Perth and Bali making the most of Australia’s liberal air route rules, although the carrier is officially AirAsia Indonesia.  The 3hr 30mins flights are operated by two-class Airbus A321 aircraft.  They will be doubled from 19 August.  Garuda, Jetstar and Ozjet compete on the route.  AirAsia currently operates 84 aircraft to 66 destinations.  Originally founded in the mid-1990s the airline was purchased by a financial group headed by former Virgin Atlantic employee Tony Fernandes.  Perth is its fourth international route out of Bali after Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. www.airasia.com
