KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 27- Malindo Air, the Malaysian hybrid airline, has unveiled its new expansion plan with the launch of daily services to Jakarta and Bali.
“Flights from Kuala Lumpur to Bali commenced today while from Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta commenced on Sept 23, marking its first routes to Indonesia.
“The all-inclusive one-way fares will start from RM99 to both destinations from Kuala Lumpur,” it said in a statement on Thursday.
Malindo is offering daily services onboard its new Boeing 737-900ER which will provide incremental rise in the number of passengers travelling, thus further enhancing the airline’s capture of the local market.
Chief Executive Officer Chandran Rama Muthy said sales was very encouraging for its new Jakarta and Bali services since Malindo started the new routes.
“More frequent flights between Kuala Lumpur and the two cities ensure more convenient travel for both business and leisure travellers and this further reinforces Kuala Lumpur’s position as an important Asian gateway.
“We anticipate good results from these two new services as Jakarta and Bali are already well-known business and holiday destinations, respectively,” added Chandran.
