Great news..!! Lets hope for LH and QF making the announcement to return to KUL next.

I would assume that their immigration will need it for the visa/entry documentation since they are entering the country, especially for those passport holders that didn’t have the visa on arrival to india

Too bad MH’s sugar daddy not as posh as those ME airlines..

To add on, the gov even allow new carrier to operate in the already crowded market.

I would say the non-existent planning for their fleet kinda of save them during covid period.. Now with the travelling is back with 2023/2024 most probably be the peak point especially with China start to open again they better expediate the dellivery of a330neo and a bonus if they can get more a350, of course the funding will be major issue.

Really hope that MH will stick with DOH flight even after QR sort out their aircraft shortage... With the upcoming World cup in Qatar this will help to feed their DOH flight, the timing for second flight seems to be good for this.

I don't think it rubbish, AF-KLM admitted they “had previously been in contact with Malaysia Airlines’s shareholders”. Basically all this proposal have been rejected by the Gov and the details only being leaked now. Maybe someone not at the same page with Khazanah which preferred AAG proposal. I would prefer if gov let the foreign entity(AF-KLM/JAL/Malindo) to take over MH rather than AAG. Too bad IAG not interested.

They did order the 789(most probably for their long haul and expansion plan) but then you said its more of a political stunt... I'm guessing the reasons why they are not proceed with 789 and 339 most probably because of not enough cash and the Gov still have no clue on what to do with MAB

I think u got it wrong overthere.. they had MOU to buy the 789 earlier which unfortunately already expired. They still have a lease option with ALC for 2 A339.

Wow... CZ also make a bid? This is new..

From MH website https://www.malaysiaairlines.com/my/en/campaign/discover-pekanbaru-solo.html

Playing with MH website and realized that now MH partner with BA on most of it's flight to Europe... some with KLM and EK. However the price quite expensive...

For me, the interior is good enough for a medium haul flight.. the important thing they need to make sure the IFE and also wifi working for this aircraft..!!

Rectify the IFE system?

Any latest info on MH plan for 787-9.... Still on track by Q3 2019?

More reasons to lower down the psc at KLIA.. 😬
