Handsome promotions: Ticket sales to Penang and Kota Kinabalu started yesterday.

KUALA LUMPUR: Firefly, a Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) subsidiary, has launched its jet operations at the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang (SZB).

Ticket sales to Penang and Kota Kinabalu started yesterday.

In a statement, the carrier said passengers can enjoy promo fares for Subang to Penang and Kota Kinabalu at RM129 and RM249 all-in one-way, respectively, for travel between Aug 29 this year and Aug 6, 2025.

These fares include 10kg of check-in baggage, 7kg of carry-on baggage and free refreshments on board.

Firefly’s new jet operations to Penang and Kota Kinabalu offer daily return flights on retrofitted Boeing 737-800s.

These aircraft feature 189 economy seats with leather upholstery, device holders and USB power outlets.

The jet operations will further complement the existing nine daily flights to Penang served by the ATR72, bringing the total number of flights between Penang and SZB to 10 daily flights.

With the introduction of jet services, Firefly strengthened its presence at SZB, with now over 2,100 weekly flights to eight destinations available, combining both turbopropeller and jet services.

“Firefly’s introduction of jet operations from Subang represents a strategic enhancement to our network, complementing our existing ATR72 turboprop services and ensuring uninterrupted connectivity.

“We want to reassure passengers that our current ATR72 schedules will remain unaffected.

“This initiative highlights MAG’S commitment to expanding travel options and strengthening connectivity across our network,” said MAG group managing director Datuk Captain Izham Ismail.
