With airlines and air carriers getting back up to speed with international air travel and tourism rejuvenating, Malaysia Airlines and Qatar Airways have signed an agreement designed to further facilitate strategic cooperation between the two airlines.
The deal will see both airlines working together across multiple areas of the business to offer a range of value-added services to passengers. With this partnership, both airlines will be able to utilize and leverage each other's network strengths and provide more access for both the airline and their passengers to new travel destinations beyond their networks.
Qatar Airways will gain better access to the wider Malaysian market via Malaysia's hub in Kuala Lumpur International Airport and more of the Asia-Pacific market such as Penang, Langkawi and Medan. Meanwhile, Malaysia Airlines will see more and improved connectivity to popular destinations in Europe, Africa, the Middle East and the Americas through the extensive network via Doha.
This codeshare agreement was first launched by the two participants in 2004 and now has been extensively expanded their partnership in recent years which now comprises 62 codeshare destinations in Southeast Asia, New Zealand, the Middle East, Europes, the Americas and Africa.
