The planned implementation in the first quarter of 2026 in the month of Ramadan, aims to ensure that every Allstar is more comfortable and confident KUALA LUMPUR, 5 December 2025 - AirAsia today announced an update to the cabin crew uniform policy, which allows female crew to have the option to wear the hijab while on duty. This is in line with AirAsias culture and continuous evolution shaped by feedback from all. AirAsia prides itself on creating a work environment where every Allstar feels confident, comfortable and proud to represent the airline wherever they fly. Bo Lingam, Group Chief Executive Officer of AirAsia Aviation Group said, I am proud that this latest innovation drives AirAsias growth and expansion as a global airline with a diverse workforce that epitomizes the communities and cultures we connect with every day. Our uniforms have always reflected professionalism, safety and comfort and this evolution builds on that foundation by giving confidence to our staff in line with their beliefs. AirAsia cabin crew have previously used hijab as part of operations on select routes, such as Jeddah where it is required by local regulations. This latest update extends that flexibility to all female cabin crew who choose to wear it, ensuring uniformity across the airlines network while maintaining AirAsias professional brand identity. Suhaila Hassan, Head of AirAsia Group Cabin Crew said, Our Allstars come from diverse backgrounds, cultures and beliefs, yet we remain united by our shared commitment to provide world-class service and care to our guests which has been proven through our wins in various aviation awards each year. This latest policy demonstrates the diverse and dynamic spirit that is AirAsias identity. We will continue to receive feedback from our Allstars and work closely with them before it is fully implemented.Tony Fernandes, CEO of Capital A, said, One of AirAsias greatest strengths has always been our diverse and opinionated Allstars. It is important for us to value different views and beliefs. This has shaped our success throughout the year by co-evolving based on input from our staff. AirAsias iconic red cabin crew uniform will remain with the professionally designed selection of hijabs and trousers continuing in the same design worn by crew on duty on the Jeddah route. This ensures comfort, safety and brand consistency across the range.
