Hundreds of passengers were left stranded at KL International Airport 2 in Sepang after AirAsia pilots reported sick on Tuesday.
Some flights were cancelled, others delayed forcing the passengers to spend the night at the airport.
While most affected flights were local, an international flight reported to have been cancelled was to Bangkok's Don Meuang Airport.
AirAsia CEO Tan Sri Tony Fernandes said at least 12 pilots came down with flu.
The flights schedule became chaotic after flights were re-timed. Some passengers were told that their flights were moved to other flights but were later cancelled. (kes)(+)
