CAAS: Firefly has not received okay to relocate


Firefly's CEO Ignatius Ong told StarBiz that the airline was currently exploring more destinations in Southern Thailand, Sumatra, and Indo-China for flights to and from Penang and Kota Bahru.

PETALING JAYA: The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) has claimed that Firefly did not receive approval from the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) to move from Changi Air­port to Seletar Airport, which resulted in the suspension of flights to Singapore.

Its spokesman said the CAAS informed Malaysia’s Transport Minis­try and Firefly of the relocation of turboprop flights from Changi Airport to Seletar Airport back in 2014, in which the airline had agreed to relocate.
