LWIN LEE | AIR ASIA’S TRAVEL 3SIXTY° INFLIGHT MAGAZINE CELEBRATES 100TH ISSUE @ MARINI’S ON 57, MENARA 3 PETRONAS, KLCC






Air Asia’s award-winning in-flight magazine TRAVEL 3SIXTY° marked its 100th issue with a celebration event, also marking the eight anniversary of the publication which has grown to reach over 3 million readers monthly.








Dato’ Aziz Bakar, Board of Director of AirAsia Berhad revealed the cover of Travel 3SIXTY°’s 100th issue during the celebratory event.

Datuk Kamarudin Meranum, publisher of the travel 3SIXTY° magazine, who is also the Executive Chairman of AirAsia Berhad and Group CEO of AirAsia X said, “It has been quite a journey for the in-flight magazine since it was established in 2007. I am very proud of how it has grown into the sleek, stylish and informational magazine that it is now; apart from being the only in0flight publication to be audited and endorsed by the Audit Bureau of Circulations of Malaysia (ABCM).”






“The core mission of the magazine has always been to showcase the best of travel, culture and lifestyle and we want our readers to continue to experience the magazine through an array of media- both print and digital. 100 issues is surely no easy feat, and I would like to congratulate the team on this milestone,” added Datuk Kamarudin Meranum.






A special contest themed ‘Invite travel 3SIXTY°, was also announced in conjunction with the magazine’s 100th issue. This contest provides readers of the magazines opportunities to invite the editorial team to visit their hometown and be featured as the cover story, enabling local stories to be shared on a regional front through the magazine.





The inspiration for this special contest came from a school teacher from the rural area in Tebedu, Sarawak who emailed the editorial team and shared his story on how he has been using travel 3SIXTY°to teach his students about other cultures in the region, apart from improving their English.

His initiatives reached the ears if the editorial team when the school teacher wrote in to request for old copies of the magazines to be donated to the school. Since  then, copies of travel 3SIXTY° have made regular appearance at the school as part of their lessons.




Guests of the night and media-bloggers alike were treated to a spread of sumptuous finger food, tapas to desserts and range of premium Scotch Whisky for liquor aficionado.

The stunning view from Petronas 57th floor as always. Remains captivating still  with its picturesque night scene albeit a heavy downpour earlier on.




Guess the iconic KL Tower had temporarily turned into an infinite tunnel towards the space after the rain, hehe.
