The interline agreement will offer passengers seamless connectivity between the UAE, Malaysia and beyond as they explore new routes on the carriers’ combined networks. The interline agreement will offer passengers the convenience of a single booking and through-checked baggage.
“We look forward to offering our passengers more opportunities to explore Southeast Asia and beyond and we remain committed to creating free flows of trade and tourism and supporting Dubai’s position as a thriving aviation hub,” stated Ghaith Al Ghaith, CEO of flydubai.
Global network expansions
flydubai customers will have the opportunity to explore more than 40 destinations across Southeast Asia on the Batik Air network including Hanoi, Hong Kong, Jakarta, Osaka, and Sydney.
Meanwhile, Batik Air passengers will have the opportunity to travel to 38 destinations on flydubai’s growing network across Africa, Central Asia, the Caucasus, Central and Southeast Europe as well as the GCC and the Middle East. This includes unique destinations such as Entebbe, Istanbul, Milan-Bergamo, Prague and Zagreb.
“By bringing together the networks of Batik Air and flydubai, we’re not only making it easier for travelers to connect with new destinations, but we’re also strengthening ties between Malaysia and a vast array of global locations. We’re thrilled to offer our passengers this new level of connectivity with the quality and service they expect from Batik Air,” added Batik Air CEO Datuk Chandran Rama Muthy.
