About AirAsia X

AirAsia X is the medium and long-haul member of the AirAsia family. It is a Malaysian low-cost airline that flies widebody aircraft from Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 2 under the code D7. Typical destinations sit beyond the range of the short-haul AirAsia network: Australia, Japan, South Korea, China, India and other points several hours from Malaysia. There are two cabins, Economy and a small Premium Flatbed section. The airline has no alliance membership, and connections to AirAsia short-haul flights at Kuala Lumpur are a big part of how it is used.

For agents and developers, AirAsia X is searched on IATA.co like any other airline: through the booking portal, or programmatically with the flights API. AirAsia X fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. You settle bookings from your prepaid balance. Long low-cost flights often sell bags and meals separately, so check what the chosen fare covers in the rules shown before confirmation.

AirAsia X airline codes explained

AirAsia X uses the two-letter IATA airline code D7 and the three-letter ICAO code XAX. The IATA code D7 is the one shown on tickets, fare displays and booking screens, while the ICAO code XAX is used in air traffic control and flight planning.

AirAsia X is a low-cost carrier, based in Malaysia, operating mainly from Kuala Lumpur (KUL). It is not part of a global airline alliance.

Booking AirAsia X fares as a travel agent

Travel agents book AirAsia X fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live D7 fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. AirAsia X results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.

Search AirAsia X (D7) through the flights API

Developers and agencies can run the same AirAsia X search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API. Filter a search by the carrier code D7 and read the fares back as JSON, then book from the same prepaid balance. See the flights API and the API docs for the full reference.
