PETALING JAYA - Starting from March 24, Malaysia’s Firefly will begin two new direct routes to Kuching, Sarawak and Singapore from the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB) or Subang SkyPark in Selangor.
These new routes will be operating up to six times weekly from March 24, and increased to seven times weekly from March 30.
The flights will be serviced on the low-cost Malaysian carrier’s retrofitted Boeing 737-800 aircraft, which can carry up to 200 passengers. To celebrate this, the airline has a promotional all-in fare, for a one-way trip, that’s available from now until Feb 28.
In a press release, group managing director of the Malaysian Aviation Group – which runs both Firely and Malaysia Airlines – Datuk Captain Izham Ismail said: “The launch of these new routes marks another milestone in Firefly’s mission to deliver enhanced connectivity and convenience.
“Complementing our turboprop services in SZB, we aim to offer customers a travel experience that combines comfort, affordability and efficiency while unlocking new travel opportunities.” THE STAR/ASIA NEWS NETWORK
