Malaysia Airlines: Daily Flights from Trivandrum

KUALA LUMPUR, 5 August 2025 – Malaysia Airlines has announced that it will increase its service frequency between Trivandrum (Thiruvananthapuram) and Kuala Lumpur to daily flights starting 1 December 2025, up from the current four-weekly operations.

This move comes in response to growing demand since the route’s debut in 2023, making it easier than ever for travellers in South India to access Malaysia and other key destinations in East Asia.

Officially launched in Trivandrum, this initiative aims to deepen bilateral tourism, trade, and cultural exchanges.

“India remains a key focus market for Malaysia Airlines,” said Dersenish Aresandiran, Chief Commercial Officer of Airlines, Malaysia Aviation Group.
