AirAsia Philippines brings the flavors of Southeast Asia closer to Filipino travelers through Santan’s selection of halal inflight meals, celebrating the region’s diverse culinary heritage while complementing the airline’s extensive connectivity across ASEAN.
The menu features Malaysia’s Nasi Lemak, with coconut rice, chicken rendang and chilli sambal, and Uncle Chin’s Chicken Rice, infused with ginger and garlic. The Philippines is represented by Beef Tapa, a savory, tangy Filipino breakfast favorite, while Thailand’s Thai Basil Chicken, from ML Noi’s Royal Kitchen, offers spiced stir-fried chicken with fragrant fresh basil.
Available for pre-booking, these regional favorites allow passengers to experience a taste of Southeast Asia while flying with AirAsia.
Santan’s menu supports inclusive travel by offering halal inflight meals and Muslim-friendly dining options that cater to passengers’ dietary preferences. In 2025, the Department of Tourism recognized AirAsia Philippines as the first Muslim-friendly airline for providing Halal-certified meal options across all Z2 domestic and international flights.
Extending this connection beyond the onboard experience, AirAsia has established a strong presence across ASEAN, with airline operations in five countries: Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Cambodia.
From direct flights linking the Philippines to key ASEAN markets such as Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, Filipino travelers can access even more destinations through AirAsia’s wider regional network. Via Kuala Lumpur, Kotakinabalu and Bangkok, AirAsia Fly-Thru service provides convenient connections to other Southeast Asian destinations, including Cambodia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei, and other regional markets, as well as destinations beyond ASEAN.
With more than 130 destinations across its network, AirAsia strengthens its position as a truly ASEAN airline, bringing together its five country operations to support tourism, trade, cultural exchange, and greater travel opportunities across the region.
