If you thought easyJet was big, take a look at AirAsia who today (5th December) announced an order for up to 50 more A320 aircraft which brings their total order to 175 firm plus 50 options.

The fast growing loco currently has bases in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand and based on the size of their order commitments it looks like they will be growing aggressively. The airline is also rumoured to be taking on some A380 super jumbo jets soon which would mean they will be getting better known in Europe before long.
