MYAirline is finally taking off after obtaining its full air service licence (ASL) from the Malaysian Aviation Commission (MAVCOM). As an introductory offer, they have started selling flight tickets to Langkawi, Kuching and Kota Kinabalu for as low as RM48.
MYAirline is Malaysia’s latest low-cost carrier which will compete directly with AirAsia. It currently has three Airbus A320-200 aircraft in its fleet and it will first operate domestic routes before expanding to regional destinations in Q2 2023.
At the moment, the low cost carrier will begin three routes starting from 1st December 2022 with weekly daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching and twice weekly daily flights from Kuala Lumpur (KLIA2) to Kota Kinabalu and to Langkawi. From 2nd December, it will operate twice weekly daily flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching. The airline will increase flight frequencies from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching and Kota Kinabalu to three times per week day from 23rd December 2022.
UPDATE: MYAirline has updated its press announcement to mention daily instead of weekly flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching, Kota Kinabalu and Langkawi. Above is their flight schedule for 1st December onward.
All-in tickets from Kuala Lumpur to Langkawi start from RM48 one way while tickets from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching start from RM68 one way. Meanwhile, flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kota Kinabalu start from RM88 one way. This promo is available from 26th to 30th November for the travel period of 1st December 2022 to 25th March 2023.
Similar to AirAsia, MYAirline will operate its A320 aircraft with a single-class cabin configuration that has a total of 180 economy seats. All passengers are entitled to 7kg of carry-on baggage. According to MYAirline’s website, 15kg of check-in luggage for flights within Peninsular Malaysia costs RM30 for online purchases or RM80 if purchased over the counter. More check-in luggage allowance is available exclusively online with 20kg costing RM35, 25kg costing RM50 and 30kg costing RM70. The highest weight option is 40kg which costs RM125.
For flights to East Malaysia, it costs RM5 more for each check-in luggage option with 15kg costing RM35 while 40kg costs RM130. Do note that each check-in luggage has a maximum limit of 32kg. If you purchase more than 32kg of check-in luggage, you’ll need to pack your excess items in the second luggage.
As you would expect from a low-cost carrier, you’ll have to pay extra for add-ons. To pick a seat, MYAirline charges RM10 for standard seats all the way to RM48 for preferred seats at row 1, 12 and 14. Flight changes are permitted but there’s a change fee of RM100 for one way per passenger. If you need a wheelchair, it costs RM55 and counter check-in will cost you RM20.
Passengers can also add-on in-flight meals from “MYKOPITIAM” which offers a variety of Asian options such as Nasi Lemak, Roti Jala, Mee Goreng and Korean Jjajangmyeon. They also offer a selection of instant noodles, nuts, chips, biscuits, soft drinks, coffee, tea, juice and mineral water.
From the drop-down menu of their online flight booking system, it appears that MYAirlines could be serving more local destinations such as Kota Bharu, Penang, Sibu and Tawau very soon. To book online, you can visit MYAirline’s website.
