AirAsia urges for bottled water donation
Thai AirAsia is currently seeking and accepting donations of bottled drinking water, which has become a scarce resource in Bangkok during the ongoing flood crisis.
"We are determined to use our connectivity to other destinations in order to collect large supplies of drinking water, which will be distributed to residents in Bangkok and neighboring provinces. We welcome donations from everyone and would like to invite individual donors, and all sectors, including the private, government, and non-profit sectors to contribute to this good cause," it said in a statement.
The donations of bottled water should be packed appropriately for shipping purposes. Donation drop-off points are located at all AirAsia counters in Thailand’s airports nationwide including Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Ubon Ratchathani, Udon Thani, Krabi, Hat Yai, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Surat Thani, Narathiwat, and Phuket. Donations are welcome every day, and will be shipped along with containers of bottled water that the airline will purchase from local suppliers outside of Bangkok.
