New Malaysia Airlines flight sale now on

Malaysia Airlines is currently offering sale fares for travel until 31st January 2021.

Malaysia Airlines flies a new A350 between London and Kuala Lumpur.  Rhys reviewed their Business Suite (formerly First Class) offering last year as well as their Business Class (review). The Malaysia Airlines business and first class lounges in Heathrow Terminal 4 (review) are also very good.

The headline fares are £2,200+ return to Bali, Bangkok, Hanoi, Jakarta, Ho Chi Minh City and most of Malaysia in business class.  Fares start at £2,800+ in Business Suite.

Remember that you earn Avios and British Airways Executive Club tier points when you fly with Malaysia Airlines as both are members of the oneworld alliance.

Whilst flying to Asia might not be your top priority right now, you can also use Malaysia Airlines to other destinations in the region including Australia.

You must book by March 2nd. You can see more on the Malaysia Airlines website here.
