New budget airline in town: MYAirline to fly between KL and Kuching in Dec this year

MYAirline's abrupt suspension of services occurred on Oct 12, 2023.

KUCHING, Nov 30: Malaysia’s low-cost carrier, MYAairline Sdn Bhd is set to operate its flight routes in December, kicking off with flights from Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 (KLIA2) to Kuching.

MYAirline direct flights will start from Dec 1, 2022, with one daily flight to Kuching and twice daily flights to Kota Kinabalu and Langkawi. 

From Dec 2 onwards, MYAirline will fly to Kuching twice per day, which will be increased to three times per day starting Dec 23.


The flights will be conducted via the Airbus A320-200 aircraft, equipped with 180 seats in a single-class cabin. 

“The all-in fares from as low as RM68 from Kuala Lumpur Kuching Bookings can be made via MYAirline’s website at www.myairline.my from Nov 26-30, 2022, while the travel period for this deal is from Dec 1, 2022 to March 25, 2023,” said MYAirline in a press statement today.

The airline plans to launch flights to Sibu, Miri and other major destinations in Malaysia upon obtaining the regulator’s approval. 

Chief executive officer Rayner Teo said the flight frequency would be increased as the airline’s domestic network expands, adding that it plans to start flying in the ASEAN region by the second quarter of 2023 at the latest. — DayakDaily
