MYAirline has decided to expand its operations beyond the shores of Malaysia and has chosen Thailand’s capital as its first international destination. The carrier will begin daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok from June end.
Not only will the flights be operating daily, but MYAirline will be flying to both the international airports in the capital city of Thailand. With flights from Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 2 (KLIA2) flying to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi International Airport (BKK) and Don Mueang International Airport (DMK), the low-cost carrier will be the first Malaysian airline to operate from both airports in Bangkok.
“Bangkok is a favoured destination for travellers from Malaysia, offering so much from its bustling streets and delicious food to its cultural landmarks and nightlife. We are excited to provide a more reliable, convenient, and cost-effective travel option for passengers,” MYAirline CEO Rayner Teo said in a press release.
“Similarly, we are excited to offer tourists and business people departing from Thailand the experience that Malaysians have been receiving aboard MYAirline for the past six months,” he added.
This is a significant milestone for the airline, as it was launched just six months ago. Since then, it has been serving eight domestic destinations from Kuala Lumpur.
