“With MAB resuming flights to Japan starting July, the two airlines combined will offer four weekly services between Kuala Lumpur-Tokyo Narita in July and August,” both airlines said in a joint statement Friday.
This initiative will enable both MAB and JAL to enhance their capabilities and leverage on each other’s strengths.
Malaysia Airlines Group chief executive officer Captain Izham Ismail said MAB is excited the partnership is finally taking off after a few months of delay due to travel restrictions between both countries.
“We look forward to the bilateral discussions between the governments of Malaysia and Japan to establish a travel bubble between the two countries, which will ease restrictions for cross-border travel,” he said.
