Firefly will operate an ATR turboprop aircraft to Bangkok |
New service to operate four times a week from 24 January 2014
Malaysian airline Firefly is planning to launch flights to Bangkok.
Commencing
on 24 January 2014, the carrier will operate four weekly flights to the
Thai capital’s Don Mueang International Airport, direct from Kota
Bharu, on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Services will operate
every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday using an ATR turboprop
aircraft.
“This new route is an indication that Firefly is marking
a significant growth and concurrently offering wider travelling options
for business and leisure to and from Thailand. With connections to
cities such as Koh Samui, Phuket and now Bangkok, Firefly will market
this sector and simultaneously promote the attractions that these cities
have got to offer,” said Firefly’s CEO, Ignatius Ong.
A regional
subsidiary of Malaysia Airlines, Firefly currently operates to
destinations on the Malay Peninsula and surrounding countries including
Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia.
