This initiative supports the airline’s global “Time For” campaign, celebrating meaningful moments and helping travellers reunite with loved ones with greater flexibility and availability.

Yang Berhormat Tuan Loke Siew Fook, Minister of Transport Malaysia said, “We recognise MAG airlines’ initiative to increase flight frequencies and cap fares during the festive season, ensuring that more Malaysians can reunite with their loved ones affordably and conveniently. This effort supports the government's goal of making domestic air travel more accessible, especially during peak periods like Hari Raya. We appreciate Malaysia Airlines’ help in keeping fares affordable, allowing families to reunite without financial strain.”
Datuk Captain Izham Ismail, Group Managing Director of Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), said, “We understand the importance of this festive season for many of our passengers who are looking forward to reuniting with their loved ones. By introducing over 200 extra and upgraded flights, we aim to make travel planning seamless and more convenient. At MAG, we cherish the micro-moments that make every journey special—whether it’s the warm smile of our crew, the comforting flavors of our onboard meals, or the joy of young travellers receiving their in-flight activity pack. These small but meaningful experiences embody Malaysian Hospitality, making every trip home a truly memorable one.”
Additionally, Malaysia Airlines and Firefly will also be supporting the government’s initiative of subsidising the airline ticket during Raya festive by capping the base fare to maximum RM499 one-way* on economy class for flights from Kuala Lumpur to East Malaysia. This applies to travel between 27 March and 30 March 2025. Malaysia Airlines remains dedicated to supporting this initiative to ensure affordable fares during the festive period.
