KUALA LUMPUR, June 23 — From July 23, Malindo Air will start its daily services from Johor Baru to Penang and five times weekly commercial services from Subang to Kuantan.

In a statement today, the hybrid airline said the Johor Baru-Penang-Johor Baru service will depart and arrive at the Senai International Airport in Johor Baharu and the Penang International Airport daily.

Meanwhile, the Subang-Kuantan-Subang service will fly to and from the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, Subang and the Sultan Ahmad Shah Airport, Kuantan every Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday, it said.

Malindo Air recently took delivery of two more ATR72-600 aircraft which will be deployed for the new services.

“We are excited to add these new services, as it has always been an ambition of ours to link major Malaysian cities with direct flights that are not only easy on the pockets but convenient as well.

“Besides, it was opportune to launch these new services right before the Raya festivities begin as it will be a splendid opportunity for families to make their way home,” Chief Executive Officer Chandran Rama Muthy said.

One-way all-inclusive fares start at RM79 for the Subang-Kuantan service and RM99 for the Penang-Johor Baru route. — Bernama
