[Kuala Lumpur] MALAYSIA’S newest budget carrier MYAirline, which only took to the skies last December with eight local routes, will soon spread its wings to Thailand, Singapore and other regional destinations.
In just four months, the low-cost airline already operates six Airbus A320 planes that fly from the capital Kuala Lumpur to Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Langkawi, Kota Bharu, Penang, Sibu, Tawau and Miri. Earlier this month, a new intra-Sabah route between Kota Kinabalu and Tawau was added.
In an interview with The Business Times, co-founder and chief executive officer Rayner Teo revealed that Thailand is likely to be the airline’s first foreign destination.
