The post RX Arabia announces change of schedule for inter aviation Arabia appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

RX Arabia officially confirmed today, 15th September, that inter aviation Arabia will now take place from 29th September to 1st October at the Riyadh Front Exhibition Centre & Conference Center.

The event will be co-located with the recently-launched event WTM Spotlight in Saudi Arabia and the second edition of FIBO Arabia.

RX Arabia will leverage its international expertise within the sector, including flagship events like inter airport Europe, inter airport Southeast Asia, and Airport Show in Dubai, to position inter aviation Arabia as a platform for investment, innovation, and connectivity across the aviation ecosystem, under the theme of Driving Aviation Transformation for Vision 2030 and Beyond.

The tri-show platform will also directly support Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 agenda by driving investments, partnerships, and talent inflows across tourism, aviation, and lifestyle sectors, while underscoring RX’s long-term commitment to the Kingdom through a globally benchmarked platform that links industries vital to diversifying the Saudi economy.

As RX managing director for the Middle East and emerging markets Vasyl Zhygalo explains: “inter aviation Arabia will be the definitive meeting point for international aviation stakeholders looking to contribute and benefit from the Kingdom’s transformational agenda. Whether advancing smart infrastructure, air connectivity or pioneering cargo solutions, the event will deliver actionable insights, world-class networking, and a clear runway for growth. We look forward to welcoming the global aviation community to Riyadh in 2026.”

As Saudi Arabia continues to diversify its economy, inter aviation Arabia has been established to support the nation’s vision of becoming a leading global aviation and logistics hub. It aims to provide the infrastructure, connectivity, and innovation necessary to boost the Middle East’s influence in shaping the future of air travel.

Zhygalo adds: “inter aviation Arabia, WTM Spotlight in Saudi Arabia, and FIBO Arabia are significant in their own right, but when staged together, they create a dynamic ecosystem that reflects Saudi Arabia’s evolving global influence across interconnected industries. The co-location is designed to drive cross-sector conversations, facilitate impactful investment opportunities, and inspire next-generation thinking across aviation and tourism.”

Four relevant foci

inter aviation Arabia is centred on four key pillars: airport investments, infrastructure, equipment, and airline route development.

With those in mind, the event’s exhibition floor will feature ten dedicated product segments, including airport investments, route development and operations, airport infrastructure and development, air cargo and logistics, air security and border control, airport operations and ground handling services, MRO (maintenance, repair & overhaul), aviation and airport technology, and sustainability and future aviation.

With live product showcases, demonstrations, and cutting-edge technologies on display, inter aviation Arabia will offer visitors a vision for the future of air travel infrastructure and operations.

Meanwhile, aviation exhibitors and buyers will gain a front-row seat to building strategic partnerships with national tourism organisations, unlock new routes, and help shape the Kingdom’s global connectivity map.

Dedicated high-level sessions and discussions will see participation from government bodies, international associations, and C-level executives shaping the future of the aviation sector.

Hot topics are expected to include public-private investment models, smart terminal automation, airport digital twins, route development strategies, and establishing next-generation aviation talent pipelines across the region.

Emphasis on regulatory frameworks, climate-focused aviation practices, and the adoption of new technologies that enhance passenger experience and safety will also be prevalent.

The platform also provides aviation stakeholders with an opportunity to elevate brand exposure, access wider investment networks, and tap into Saudi Arabia’s fast-growing wellness-tourism and sports-air travel corridors.

The event also seeks to support the Kingdom’s efforts to become a global aviation hub, aligning with Saudi Arabia’s goal to handle 330 million passengers annually, expand connectivity to over 250 international destinations, and increase air cargo capacity to 4.5 million tonnes per year by 2030.

Backed by US$100 billion in investments through the Saudi Aviation Strategy, the Kingdom’s aviation sector is undergoing one of the most ambitious transformations worldwide.

The post W Kuala Lumpur Blends Malaysia’s Rich Culture With Contemporary Luxury appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

One of Asia’s most intriguing destinations, Malaysia is a country of rich contrasts and layered cultures, a place where modern luxury blends with centuries-old traditions. Visitors can choose an indulgent retreat by white-sand beaches, a fascinating eco-adventure, or a cosmopolitan city escape.

At the heart of it all is the vibrant capital city of Kuala Lumpur. Pulsating with an energy that bridges the past and the present, it is a lush urban jungle that embodies Malaysia’s dual character – sleek skyscrapers rising over lively local neighbourhoods, luxury boutiques alongside busy night markets, and Michelin-starred restaurants next to timeless street food stalls.

At the heart of Kuala Lumpur is W Kuala Lumpur. The city’s boldest luxury address, this outstanding hotel is as much a statement of lifestyle as it is a place to stay. Like each W Hotel it was created to be a masterpiece, a sensory celebration of colours, aromas and sounds.

The Rhythm Of The City

Boasting dramatic views of the Kuala Lumpur skyline, the 150-room W Kuala Lumpur is where business and pleasure blend effortlessly and every stay is an immersion into the luxurious side of Malaysia. From the very first step inside the awe-inspiring lobby with its striking design of batik motifs, metal accents, bamboo-inspired chandeliers and LED lights, to the exceptional accommodation choice of Wonderful, Spectacular and Cool Corner rooms and Studio, Marvelous, WOW and EWOW suites, to the scintillating restaurants that promise an epicurean dining adventure – the hotel’s invigorating design reflects both Kuala Lumpur’s energy and Malaysia’s daring spirit.

From W Kuala Lumpur, the options for exploring the capital city are as exciting as they are diverse. The bustling district of Bukit Bintang is within easy reach, including Changkat Street with its high-end shopping centres, open-air bars and live music clubs. As is colourful Chinatown centered around Petaling Street known for its fashion shops, large market, temples and eye-catching graffiti murals, and Little India where there are textile shops, jewellery stores, temples and century-old churches.

Must-visit attractions nearby include historic Merdeka Square where the Malaysian flag was hoisted for the first time in 1957 as the country gained its independence and Perdana Botanical Gardens, one of the city’s most popular public parks. Around 35 minutes by train from the city are the famous Batu Caves, a significant Hindu pilgrimage site and thought to be 400 million years old.

Impossible to miss are the Petronas Twin Towers, right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) just steps away from W Kuala Lumpur. At 451.9 m they were the tallest buildings in the world from 1998 to 2004 and remain the world’s tallest twin towers. Visitors can access the skybridge connecting the two towers at levels 41 and 42, and an observation deck on the 86th floor.

Another sky-high landmark is KL Tower, one of the tallest freestanding towers in the world at 421 m. There’s an indoor observation deck at 276 m and the outdoor Sky Deck at 300 m.

A Culinary Capital

In Malaysia food is more than just food – it’s culinary storytelling. In Kuala Lumpur, gastronomy rises to the level of art, and the city’s scintillating food scene is a major attraction. Top dining spots around town include Dewakan – a two-star Michelin restaurant that reimagines Malaysian ingredients with avant-garde flair – and Beta KL – where the dishes are inspired by different regions of Malaysia and celebrate the country’s rich culinary heritage.

The dining experience at W Kuala Lumpur amounts to an epicurean adventure, with Pan-Asian and redefined Chinese classic cuisine restaurants, a trend-setting cocktail spot and fashion-defining rooftop bar.

YEN

With an elegant and convivial atmosphere that blends imperial ambiance with modern Oriental elements, YEN redefines modern Cantonese cuisine for the global stage. For gourmands charting Kuala Lumpur’s culinary map, YEN is not simply recommended, it is essential. The tantalising menu marries precision with creativity, in which dim sum becomes sculpture, seafood is elevated into delicacy, and flavours linger long after the last bite.

Living Room

The Living Room is the social heartbeat of the hotel, where the city’s tastemakers gather over crafted cocktails, curated beats and an ambiance that shifts seamlessly from chic daytime lounge to sultry nightspot. Mixology is an art form here, making this the ideal setting for both intimate conversations and stylish soirees.

Flock

The playful Pan-Asian grill Flock sets the stage for casual sophistication, with a vast open kitchen and delightful menu of bold culinary creations inspired by the rich flavours of Asia.

WET Deck

A destination in itself and a place to see and be seen, the rooftop WET Deck is a glamorous poolside bar boasting cutting-edge mixology, a playful attitude and stunning views of the Petronas Twin Towers. Monthly WET Sessions with DJs are a popular draw.

The post Philippine civil aviation authority ties up with AirAsia to mitigate bird strikes appeared first on TD (Travel Daily Media) Travel Daily Media.

The Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines announced that it is working with AirAsia Philippines to mitigate bird strikes, especially in Tacloban, a key city in the centre of the country.

AirAsia Philippines officials made the announcement on Thursday, 11th September.

Per the airline’s report to CAAP, there was a considerable presence of birds within the runway environment and surrounding areas of Tacloban airport, hence the need to mitigate wildlife-centric incidents.

In response, CAAP committed to deploying a team of biologists and wildlife experts to coordinate with local authorities to address the issue.

As AirAsia Philippines president Suresh Bangah puts it: “Wildlife hazard management isn’t something airlines can do alone: it requires a collective effort among government, airport operators, and the entire industry. We are proud to work closely with CAAP, ACAP, airport partners, and fellow airlines to ensure that our skies stay safe for everyone.”

What are bird strikes?

A bird strike is a collision between a bird in flight and an aircraft, which usually happens during takeoff or landing. 

The damage it causes varies and may potentially disrupt flight schedules, affecting maintenance requirements and impacting overall airline operations.

According to an AirAsia Philippines report, more than 90 bird strike incidents in several domestic airports were reported between January and August of this year. 

Most of these were apparently low-consequence occurrences that were routinely managed by a safety risk management process.

However, there were six incidents which caused damage to aircraft components.

AirAsia claimed that, in all these incidents, flight safety was never compromised, with only temporary aircraft inspections, repairs, and short delays noted.

The airline also actively participates in the Air Carriers Association of the Philippines (ACAP) safety sub-committee, where airlines share data and align strategies for nationwide wildlife hazard management.

Furthermore, crew advisories were intensified at high-risk airports, and coordination among its flight operations, engineering, and ground teams was enforced to ensure immediate inspections and strict reporting protocols.

Lee said: “Beyond enhancing travel convenience, it also underscores our continued commitment to positioning Malaysia as a premier travel destination within the region.
