AirAsia launched its Give Peace a Chance campaign hours after the United States and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire on April 8, 2026. The truce marks the first major pause in a conflict that disrupted aviation routes, rattled global markets and drove oil prices above $100 a barrel.
AirAsia co-founder Tony Fernandes expressed relief over the ceasefire in remarks shared on social media. He emphasized the airlines mission of connecting people, stating, We are so relieved to hear about the ceasefire. At its core, AirAsia has always been about connecting people.
Fernandes linked affordable travel to broader themes of understanding, noting, Peace is ultimately what all of us seek… And travel has a unique way of creating both. It allows people to reconnect, discover new perspectives… When people meet face to face and see eye to eye, it builds understanding and breaks down differences.
