Is this airline Malaysia’s best kept secret? | Penang - Singapore | July 2023
Firefly Airlines is not a new kid on the block - Malaysians know it for their ATR-72 turboprop operations from Kuala Lumpur’s second airport, before parent company Malaysia Airlines decided to bring their subsidiary into the ever-lucrative budget jet airline market with hand-me-down Boeing 737 jets. Seemingly, their jet service has been growingly slowly and there are only a few international destinations that we can give their service a try. This was until recently, of course, with the launch of their service from Penang to Singapore in March 2023.
With the national airline slowly adopting a “Scoot” model by moving destinations from the mainline fleet to Firefly, how can their budget offshoot compete? Should we be looking forward to their expansion in the near future? In this video, we’ll be taking a closer look at their service on one of their two international routes from Penang. Enjoy!

Yes it was! Thanks!
Thanks for your Video. I'm a huge fan of Firefly and can't wait to have flights on both types the coming weeks. Much more reliable then AirAsia nowadays and always great value for money. +1 Subscriber :)

Glad you liked it! I deel the same way too, AirAsia's a lot of sizzle but lacks a solid hard product.
Currently FY changed their B738 service which provide that refreshment for free same like their ATR service.

Oh sorry to hear that!
Disgusting new seats. Uncomfortable, hard as plank and heat inducing seats. 😢 The worst seat design Malaysia airlines and Firefly has installed for their 737-800 (Winglets).

I rode on this seat, it's not that bad, on FireFly standard, but it's a different case if it's on Malaysia Airlines 😒😒😒 You pay for full service and you got this, in some cases more pricey than SIA, even JAL and ANA Domestic configuration still slightly better
