Hong Kong-based airline Dragonair will be operating four daily flights between Kuala Lumpur and the island state starting early next year.
The new flights will be introduced progressively between March and May 2017. KL will become Dragonair’s third destination in Malaysia – the airline already operates 11 weekly flights to Penang and five weekly flights to Kota Kinabalu.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong’s flag carrier Cathay Pacific will cease its four daily flights from Kuala Lumpur upon the launch of the new Dragonair service. Additionally, five of Cathay Pacific’s Airbus A330 aircraft will be transferred to the Dragonair fleet to support the airline’s operation and growth.
Dragonair is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cathay Pacific. In November it will be renamed Cathay Dragon. – Chester Chin
