Bargain Hunter: There's one day left to book a bargain flight with Air Asia
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.If you're planning a spot of globetrotting next year, now's the time to book bargain flights within Asia and to Australia: Air Asia is offering selected flights from a number of cities including Bangkok, Manila and Singapore to selected destinations across Asia and Australasia from as little as $4 (about £2.40).
You can fly from Bangkok to Chiang Mai or Surat Thani for $10 (£6) or from Kuala Lumpur to Perth for $85 (£51). Phuket to Chiang Mai is $20 (£12) or Phuket to Singapore $36 (£22).
However, you need to act quickly as the sale ends tomorrow. The flights must be taken between 1 March and 24 October 2015.
