Malindo Air Prepping a Return to Australia and India

PETALING JAYA, Apr 13: Malindo Air begins prepping a return to Australia and India by reinstating their international flights to Perth (PER), Melbourne (MEL) and Brisbane (BNE) in Australia as well as to Trichy (TRZ), Mumbai (BOM) and DEL (DEL) in India, as many nations start reopening borders and travel restrictions have been lifted, which should facilitate travels and cargo movement.

VFR arrivals into Malaysia are expected to rise with the commencement of Malindo Air’s four times weekly between KUL and MEL (effective 17 June 2022); and three times weekly between KUL and BNE (effective 18 June 2022). Malindo Air had resumed their direct service from KUL to Perth since March 3 this year and are now operating at a frequency of four weekly flights.

Malindo Air had started their four weekly flights between KUL and TRZ on 1 April 2022. The airline will be recommencing services to Delhi (4X weekly) and Mumbai (3X weekly) on June 1 and June 2 respectively. By 1 August 2022, services to both cities will be enhanced with daily flights (7X weekly).

Additionally, as part of our future expansion plans, Malindo Air will add new routes to four other popular cities in India: Kolkata, Bangalore, Amritsar and Kochi.

Tickets are already open for booking. In conjunction with the relaunch, Malindo Air is offering special one-way all-inclusive fares as follows:

·         KUL/TRZ: Economy from RM669 & Business Class from RM1,459

·         KUL/BOM: Economy from RM899 & Business Class from RM1,999

Malindo Air chief executive officer Captain Mushafiz Bin Mustafa Bakri said, “Many customers comprising Malaysians and foreigners have reached out to us requesting for flights to Kuala Lumpur. Therefore, following the announcement on the reopening of borders for international flights from 1 April, Malindo Air has immediately resumed flights to Lahore (Pakistan); Kathmandu (Nepal); and Dhaka (Bangladesh). Indeed, we are also pleased that the recommencement of our services to Australia and India will allow families to reunite after being separated for so long due to the Covid-19 crisis and global travel restrictions. To avoid inconvenience, may we remind all passengers to check entry and exit requirements before their journeys with travel restrictions still remaining in place in some countries. We are committed to putting health and safety at the forefront of our passenger’s journey.”

Mushafiz also said, “With many countries relaxing its borders to welcome back tourists, we have also started to ramp up our schedules. However, it will take much longer before passenger demand increases, and revenue approaches pre-pandemic figures again. We hope things will turn around soon.”
