Posted Date: 03/07/2009
Changi Airport Group has held a welcome ceremony for Firefly to celebrate the airline’s commencement of operations to Singapore. Guests on board flight FY3505, from Subang (Kuala Lumpur), were warmly received at Changi Airport’s Budget Terminal (BT). Firefly, which commenced flight operations at the BT on 1 July 2009, is the fourth airline to join the Changi family in 2009.
Firefly, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Malaysia Airlines, operates six daily flights between Singapore and Subang (Kuala Lumpur). The airline will begin operating routes between Singapore and destinations in Malaysia, such as Ipoh (scheduled flights commencing on 12 July 2009), Kuala Terengganu (from 14 July 2009), Kuantan (from 22 July 2009) and Malacca (from 1 September 2009). The airline also plans to launch flights to Alor Setar and Kota Bahru later this year.
In total, Firefly will add 12 daily flights to Changi Airport, representing a 12% increase in scheduled passenger flights between Singapore and Malaysia. With the airline’s new services, Changi Airport will be linked to nine cities in Malaysia via 110 daily flights, making it the international airport with the most connections to Malaysia.
