MAS launches third wave of low fares campaign

--------------------------------------------------------------------

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia Airlines has launched the third wave of its Everyday Low Fares campaign, offering another two million seats to destinations in Malaysia, South-East Asia, China, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Australia.

One-way fares to South-East Asian destinations start from zero, while fares to Dhaka and Karachi start from RM99. Passengers to Perth and Brisbane in Australia will enjoy fares starting from RM149.

To enjoy the deals, travellers will have to book online at MAS’ website between June 9 and 22. The deals are valid for travel between July 15 and Dec 14, 2008, except for the Australian routes where the travel period is between Nov 1, 2008 and April 30, 2009.

MAS also announced that it has linked up with Maybank and CIMB, and clients of the two banks could now pay for their tickets online without using credit cards.

“Once bookings are finalised, customers will be guided to the payment option page where they can authorise payments to be debited directly from their Maybank or CIMB accounts,” MAS said in a statement.

The third wave of the low-fare campaign covers 21 domestic routes, 22 South-East Asian routes, five China routes, two to Australia, and one each to Bangladesh and Pakistan.

MAS managing director Datuk Seri Idris Jala said the Everyday Low Fares mechanism was flexible and allowed customers to mix the promotional low fares with regular ones.

“For instance, if the lowest fare is available only on one leg of the journey but not available on the return leg due to the choice of travel dates, a customer can still purchase a combination of the low and regular fares for the intended journey,” he said.
