Malaysia Airlines (MAS) will stop flying to three Asian cities in the
coming weeks as part of its rationalisation exercise, The Star reported
today.
The English daily said the cancelled routes were to Kunming in China, Krabi (Thailand) and Cochin (India). This follows the national carrier's move to suspend flights to Frankfurt, Germany, last week.
MAS owner Khazanah Nasional Berhad said the airline had taken steps to suspend non-profitable routes, and was considering further route rationalisation.
“Moving forward, the national carrier will be principally commercial while supporting national development objectives, provide broad connectivity via partnerships and offer refreshed premium products,” The Star quoted Khazanah as saying in its third quarterly review of MAS’s restructuring.
Full-fledged international carrier MAS Berhad will take over MAS operations from September 1.
