    AirAsia looks at Tinder to find travel lovers

    Low-cost airline AirAsia is hoping New Zealanders will swipe right and fall in love with Malaysia.

    The Kuala Lumpur-based airline is launching the “Meet Malaysia” campaign on Tuesday.

    Anyone who chooses to match with the destination will go into the draw to win a trip to Malaysia for two people and tickets to the Borneo Jazz Festival or Rainforest World Music Festival.

    The campaign, which the airline has described as “cheeky”, is aimed at attracting those who may want to try something new. Something that may be common on Tinder, but perhaps not for an airline.

    AirAsia hopes the campaign will attract potential travellers on the app who were thinking about spending time in places like Indonesia, Thailand or Vietnam that could be swept off their feet by the Malaysian experience.

    AirAsia operates seven flights per week from Auckland to Kuala Lumpur with connections to 15 cities in Malaysia.

  • Best place in Southeast Asia for cheap love

    Best place in Southeast Asia for cheap love

    No need to go ‘Dutch’ in a city of satisfied lovers. For a night out with a potential life-long love in Ho Chi Minh City, love birds have to shell out around $35, while in Singapore a date may cost them at least $80.

    A cheap date night combo consists of: dinner for two at a local pub, movie tickets and two cocktails.

    The findings were based on a cost of living index updated recently, a database that compiles the global cost of living.

    Date nights may be even cheaper in Hanoi where living costs are 2.62 percent lower than in Ho Chi Minh City.

    Instead of cocktails, Ho Chi Minh City is also the cheapest place for beer with half a liter costing just $1.5.

    However, if couples fancy a date at an Italian restaurant with appetizers, a main course, wine and dessert, then watch out, Ho Chi Minh City may not be a good choice, take a look at Manila instead.

    It seems that residents should choose their dates carefully, and marry young. It’s cheaper that way.

    Recently, Vietnam was named an ideal place to be in a relationship, with a new regional survey naming Vietnamese among the most satisfied lovers.

    If you’re looking for smooth sailing in a relationship, hook up in Vietnam.
