Malaysia Airlines will be increasing its flight capacity by over 70,000 seats on its non-stop flight schedule from London Heathrow to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (LHR-KUL) beginning 27 March 2022.
The announcement follows the Malaysian government’s decision to open the country’s borders to international travellers on 1 April 2022.
MH1 and MH3 flights will be available 11x weekly from 27 March until 29 June and will return to their full double daily service from 30 June onwards.
The airline said that the increased capacity provides greater opportunities for better connections across Europe and Asia Pacific and will allow passengers greater flexibility to fly on the dates that suit them best.
Malaysia Airlines’ flagship LHR-KUL route is operated by the state-of-the-art Airbus A350-900, which feature the signature business suite alongside the latest business and economy cabins.
The airline is certified by SKYTRAX as a 4-Star Airline in recognition of its commitment to excellence in both its airport and onboard products.
It also received full marks (7 stars) by AirlineRatings.com for its COVID-19 health and safety measures.
Daniel Bainbridge, Regional Director UK & Europe, commented:
“I am delighted that we are resuming our full schedule, twice daily flights from London Heathrow to Kuala Lumpur in the summer following the significant increase to 11x weekly flights from 27 March for the first time since early 2020.
“The further increase in capacity of over 70,000 seats is a top priority for Malaysia Airlines on our flagship route and we remain the only non-stop carrier between London and Kuala Lumpur.
“We now eagerly await the opening of Malaysian borders on 1 April for travellers who we know have been wanting to visit and look forward to welcoming them back onboard with our signature Malaysian hospitality.”
