Malaysia Airlines, the country's primary airline, has announced the start of direct flights from Kuala Lumpur to Doha, opening up additional links to Europe via its reciprocal oneworld Alliance codeshare with Qatar Airways.


Malaysia Airlines will operate a daily direct route from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) to Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH).
The daily service will be flown by A330-300 aircraft with 290 seats, including 27 Business Class seats, 16 Economy with extra legroom seats, and 247 Economy Class seats.

 

Customers travelling from Kuala Lumpur to Doha on Malaysia Airlines will have access to 62 codeshare destinations across Qatar Airways' extensive network in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and North America.


Customers flying Qatar Airways from Doha to Kuala Lumpur would be able to smoothly transfer to 34 Malaysia Airlines destinations, including the whole domestic network as well as significant Asian markets including Singapore, Seoul, Hong Kong, and Ho Chi Minh City, subject to government permission.


The partners hope to establish Kuala Lumpur as a premier aviation hub in Southeast Asia by connecting both route networks.
Malaysia Airlines and Qatar Airways will also take use of synergies across different business areas and produce unique solutions for their global clients.

 

"We have long planned to create a route to Doha, and I am glad this has come to fruition," said Daniel Bainbridge, Regional Director UK and Europe.
As part of our increased offering, I am particularly excited about the possibility to exploit codeshares with our oneworld partner, Qatar Airways, via their global hub at Hamad International Airport.
Travelers now have the option of three daily Doha flights to Malaysia, in addition to the existing MH DOH-KUL codeshare flights, providing seamless connection to and from any major European destination.
This is another another indicator that Malaysia is welcoming international visitors, and I applaud this latest step in the country's tourism resurgence."
