Aviation pundits covering Malaysia cast doubt on the plan, claiming the airline doesn\u2019t have sufficient aircraft to carry out the expansion without cancelling services to other destinations. They fear it could impact the airline\u2019s extensive network operating out of Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) to Southeast Asian destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>New services in the pipeline<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kuala Lumpur Subang (SZB) &#8211; Jakarta (CGK):<\/strong> Daily flights starting 30 March 2025, operated by 737-800 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FY3570 departs Subang at 1230 and arrives in Jakarta at 1340.<br>FY3571 departs Jakarta at 1420 and arrives in Subang at 1735.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kuala Lumpur Subang (SZB) &#8211; Kuching (KCH):<\/strong> Daily flights starting 30 March 2025, operated by 737-800 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FY2802 departs Subang at 0600 and arrives in Kuching at 0755.<br>FY2803 departs Kuching at 0845 and arrives in Subang at 1040.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kuala Lumpur Subang (SZB) &#8211; Singapore (SIN):<\/strong> Daily flights 30 starting March 2025, operated by 737-800 aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FY3672 departs Subang at 1830 and arrives in Singapore at 1945.<br>FY3673 departs Singapore at 2035\u00a0 and arrives in Subang at 2150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Penang (PEN) \u2013 Jakarta (CGK):<\/strong> Three weekly flights (Monday, Wednesday and Friday) starting 31 March 2025 operated by Boeing 737-800.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FY3846 departs Penang at 2135 and arrives in Jakarta at 0200 (plus a day).<br>FY3847 departs Jakarta at 0300 and arrives in Penang at 0715 (Tue, Thu and Sat).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These new routes should improve connectivity and travel options, particularly in Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(Source: Aeroroutes)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KUALA LUMPUR, 10 January 2025: Firefly, an airline in the Malaysia Aviation Group, will launch four new routes from its Subang (SZB) Kuala Lumpur and Penang (PEN) hubs to strengthen its network in Southeast Asia.
