The airline will operate five weekly flights on this route, operated by the Boeing 737-800 aircraft. This strategic move follows Amritsar’s successful commencement of daily operations last month, reflecting Malaysia Airlines’ commitment to strengthening its presence in one of its leading international markets. With the recommencement of this flight and the increased flight frequencies from Amritsar, the airline now offers an impressive 76 weekly flights between India and Malaysia.

Ahmad Luqman Mohd Azmi, Chief Executive Officer of Airlines from Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), said, “We are delighted to recommence direct flights to Kolkata, marking a pivotal step in our ongoing efforts to offer enhanced connectivity for travellers between Malaysia and India. India is a key market for us, and by continually enhancing our network and increasing frequencies, we aim to deliver exceptional travel experiences, complemented by Malaysia Airlines’ renowned hospitality. We invite passengers to explore the diverse cultural offerings, while also having the opportunity to connect seamlessly to popular global hubs through our base in Kuala Lumpur, strengthening our position as the gateway to Asia and beyond. Our continued investment in the Indian market strengthens our commitment and ensures we remain the airline of choice for both leisure and business travellers alike.”

The airline is offering special introductory fares starting from RM1,499 all-in return via Economy Class, available from 8 October 2024 to 8 November 2024, for travel from 2 December 2024 through its “Time for Kolkata” campaign.
