Malaysia Airlines Launches ASEAN Travel Pass

(25 May 2022, 10:26 +07)  Malaysia Airlines has launched MHflypass ASEAN, a fixed-rate travel pass that allows multiple trips, year-round across ASEAN.

The MHflypass ASEAN is part of MHflypass which was introduced in April 2021 and consists of flight coupons for domestic travel within Malaysia.

With MHflypass ASEAN, passengers can fly to 12 cities within ASEAN via Malaysia Airlines’ extensive network. Each pass comes with six tickets which means passengers are entitled to three return trips, or six one-way trips.

MHflypass ASEAN has three zones with an all-year fare of RM1,499 (introductory price: RM1,299):

Zone 1 passes offer flights between Kuala Lumpur and nine cities in Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Myanmar;

Zone 2 passes enable travel between Kuala Lumpur and Manila, Hanoi, and Bali at RM2,099; and

Zone 3 passes can be purchased for RM2,699 and cover the largest number of destinations.

Valid for one year, MHflypass has no blackout periods which means that holders can redeem flights even during peak periods or high season, subject to availability.

It also comes with unlimited flight changes, allowing passengers to alter their itinerary at no charge and even includes Go-Show Flexibility that allows holders to board an earlier flight if there is one available.

Other MH Economy Flex perks include priority check-in, priority boarding and priority baggage drop.

Tickets redeemed using MHflypass also come with complimentary meals, snacks, and beverages, along with extra baggage allowance: 7kg of cabin baggage and 35kg of check-in baggage.

“The expansion of MHflypass is very timely as it stands to offer flexible, convenient, and affordable travel for all. We are thrilled to add more destinations to our MHflypass offerings, extending beyond Malaysia,” said Lau Yin May, Group Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer. “This exciting expansion gives our passengers a greater range of cities to discover, simultaneously revitalizing the tourism industry across the ASEAN region. With accredited COVID19 measures put in place for our passengers to fly confidently, we look forward to welcoming them back on board!”
