AirAsia’s travel 3Sixty° magazine celebrates 100th issue!

AirAsia’s travel 3Sixty° magazine celebrates 100th issue!!!! Yupe, this is the magazine you pick up to read every time you board AirAsia's plane, while waiting to depart, you read this while the plane taxi or even throughout the journey! It was at Marini's 57 - at Tower 3, beautiful place!

This award-winning in-flight magazine "travel 3Sixty°" marked its 100th issue with a celebration event, also marking the eighth anniversary of the publication which has grown to reach over 3 million readers monthly, since 2007 it has developed into sleek, stylish and informational magazine that it is now; apart from being the only in-flight publication to be audited and endorsed by the Audit Bureau of Circulations of Malaysia (ABCM).

Datuk Kamarudin Meranun said that 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 and enjoy the magazine through an array of media – both print and digital. 100 issues is surely no easy feat. Yeah, I totally believe that - even to publish a blog is damn a lot of work, let alone magazine in both print and digital. Woah....

In conjunction of the party and celebration, a special contest themed ‘Invite travel 3Sixty° was also announced in conjunction with the magazine’s 100th issue. This contest provides readers of the magazine 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 of 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 appearances at the school as part of their lessons. travel 3Sixty° has won many awards and accolades since its inception in August, 2007.

Most recently, in June, 2014, the magazine clinched the Platinum Achievement Award at the 2nd Kuala Lumpur Mayor’s Tourism Award 2014 in the International Print Media category which had 22 shortlisted publications from all over the world competing in the category. The magazine is also available online at travel3sixty.com.
