Singapore Airlines and Malaysia Airlines to expand codeshare agreement

The agreement also includes both firms’ subsidiaries SilkAir, Scoot, and Firefly.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Malaysia Airlines Berhad (MAB) inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to explore a strategic partnership to build on their existing codeshare agreement that covers flights between Singapore and Malaysia.

The terms include a significant expansion of codeshare flights beyond Singapore-Malaysia routes, as well as enhancements on the frequent flyer programme front. Other potential co-operation may involve cargo as well as maintenance, repair and overhaul services.

A formal agreement is expected to be finalised in the coming months. It will also involve SIA subsidiaries SilkAir and Scoot and MAB’s sister airline Firefly.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
