  • Resuming Limited Flight Services to Sabah and Sarawak
    KEMENTERIAN PENGANGKUTAN MALAYSIA ___________________________________________________________________ Monday, 13 April 2020 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRESS RELEASE MINISTER OF TRANSPORT TOPIC: MAS RESUMING LIMITED FLIGHT SERVICES TO SABAH AND SARAWAK The Ministry of Transport acknowledges the Sarawak Government’s request that flights between Peninsular Malaysia and the state continue to operate, as noted by Sarawak’s Minister of Tourism, Art, Culture, Youth and Sports Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah in a statement today (13 April). The Ministry had not issued any instructions to airlines such as Malaysia Airlines (MAB), AirAsia or Malindo to suspend their flights to Sarawak and Sabah. On March 26, 2020, AirAsia Group Berhad issued a statement announcing a temporary suspension of all international and domestic flights designated ‘AK’ from March 28 to April 28, 2020. In the same statement, AirAsia assured that the decision was also made in order to ensure the well-being of passengers and employees as the country grapples with the Covid-19 pandemic. MAB has also halted their operations following drastic drop in passenger load to 10% - 15% on their flights. That difficult decision was made after MAB suffered significant losses which could have led to more dire consequences if flight operations were to continue. 1 Nonetheless, the Ministry of Transport has requested that MAB and AirAsia reconsider their respective decisions and reopen flight services to Sabah and Sarawak. Following my discussion with MAB’s senior management, the airline has assured that it would continue the following services to Sabah and Sarawak: 1. KL - Kuching - KL: 1 flight per week 2. KL - Miri - KL: 1 flight per week 3.

  • Malaysia Airlines Berhad
    Malaysia Airlines Berhad Chai Yuan Ping1, Daisy Mui Hung Kee2, Chai Yee Ling3, Chew Shi Xian4, Wong Chun Sian5, Yusef Hamad Alnasser6 Universiti Sains Malaysia1,2,3,4,5 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Kuwait University6 ABSTRACT MAS Airlines was branded as Malaysia Airlines and known as the second big airlines' company in Malaysia. We choose MAS Airlines as our targeted company in this project due to the huge information can be accessed on the Internet and the issues that go through by MAS Airlines in this few years. We have accessed the current issue faced by our targeted company, MAS Airlines. According to our research, we found out that the company is having difficulties in competing with the competitors, facing unprofitability and failed to turnover and managing its technical capacity. Problems identified were flight MH001, an Airbus from London to Malaysia which forced to turn back more than an hour, MH134 which returned to Brisbane due to misplacement of plastic covers and the emergency landing of MH122. We followed our findings by investigating the reasons for those tragedies from happening. Since the airline had undergone top management handover, the company is obviously struggling with staff engagement. From a factual perspective, the airline is currently experiencing losses continuously for 3 years which ended up with dramatic RM1 billion losses when implementing a restructuring plan. High operation expenditure such as excessive high salary paid to top management is believed to be the dominating cause. Besides, extreme cash outflow due to the purchase of an aircraft was also regarded as a bad investment.
