Firefly, a subsidiary of Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), has announced the expansion of its jet operations with the launch of two new direct flights from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (Subang Airport) in Selangor to Kuching and Singapore Changi Airport.
The airline will operate each route six times a week from March 24 before increasing to daily operations from March 30. This move takes Firefly’s operations from its current routes to Penang and Kota Kinabalu to a total of 28 weekly flights, all on its Boeing 737-800 aircraft.
The new jet operations to Singapore will also complement Firefly’s turboprop operations from Subang Airport to Seletar Airport, providing travelers with more options and convenience.
Firefly passengers on the new routes will enjoy complimentary 10kg check-in baggage, 7kg carry-on baggage, and in-flight refreshment.
Convenient Access to Kuala Lumpur
Arokia Das Anthony, executive director of The Essence of Asia Tours & Travel, commented on the significance of Firefly’s new routes: “Firefly’s jet operations from Changi Airport directly to Subang Airport provides a convenient option for travelers wanting quick access to Shah Alam, Subang Jaya, Petaling Jaya, and Kuala Lumpur’s city centre, saving time compared to traveling from Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal One and Terminal 2.”
He added that Subang Airport’s proximity to Kuala Lumpur’s city centre makes it easier and faster for travelers from Kuala Lumpur and surrounding areas to access the airport, reducing overall travel time compared to departing from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). This is especially beneficial for business travelers and frequent flyers seeking a more efficient travel experience.
Changi Airport’s “extensive retail, dining, and entertainment options” also enhance the overall travel experience, and its status as a major international hub provides easy connectivity to destinations worldwide.
