Malindo Air is definitely in my personal list of preferred airlines and given the kind of services that I experienced (main terminal, aerobridge, good seat pitch, free IFE, free snacks, new aircraft, friendly crew) I wish Malindo Air the very best of success. I hope that the seats can be filled up easily, fares remain competitive if not low and the airlines can sustain its bottom-line while maintaining the standards of service in a long run. In the end, we passengers will be the winner. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuanzahdi.com\/wp-content\/\/333.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuanzahdi.com\/wp-content\/\/333.jpg\" alt=\"33\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuanzahdi.com\/wp-content\/333.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.azuanzahdi.com\/wp-content\/333-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For bookings \u2014 head over to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.malindoair.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.malindoair.com\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>p\/s: With Malindo Air competitive fares to KK, we now have more reasons to travel for a holiday to Sabah!
