"We are probably the only airline to allow our passengers to revise their travel plans for the General Elections therefore we hope that they can take advantage of this offer. We would like to accommodate our passengers’ needs as we understand that they might have made travel plans prior to this. We want to make it easier for our passengers to get home by travelling on Malaysia Airlines, their preferred premium airline” said Ahmad Jauhari.

The airline is allowing cabin baggage in Economy Class of up to a maximum of 7kg instead of 5kg. Guests on Business Class are permitted to carry two pieces of cabin baggage of a 7kg each maximum weight, with each baggage not exceeding 56cm height, 36 cm in length and 23cm width.
“With the special fares and new cabin baggage policy in place, guests can easily plan a day trip back home to vote,” Ahmad Jauhari added.
