MASwings’ Kota Kinabalu-Bandar Seri Begawan route takes off on Oct 1


KOTA KINABALU: MASwings’ expansion into the international scene is on track with the airline starting its Kota Kinabalu-Bandar Seri Begawan route on Oct 1.

MASwings regional vice-president (Sabah) Shauqi Ahmad said everything was progressing well, adding that the airline would fly the Kuching-Pontianak and Kuching-Bandar Seri Begawan routes thereafter.

“We are ready and will go international by Oct 1,” he said.

He said that after gauging the response to the new flights, which was expected to be encouraging, the wholly-owned subsidiary of national carrier Malaysia Airlines (MAS) will consider flying throughout Borneo and the Philippines.

“We will start with Tarakan (in East Kalimantan) and then the rest of Borneo,” he said after a prize presentation to MASwings’ and MAS’ self check-in kiosk promotion winners here yesterday.
