Boss Is Back: Fernandes Returns As AirAsia Advisor And Steward

Ever since taking over a debt-laden AirAsia close to 23 years ago, Tony Fernandes has been the public face and personality of Asia's first low-cost carrier, no matter what his official title or role was with the airline or parent Capital A. Whenever a big aircraft deal is announced, a new airline is founded, or something controversial is on the news, it's Fernandes who is front and center, surrounded by an enthusiastic band of AirAsia Allstars.
