Malaysia Airlines is inviting international travellers to discover more of Malaysia as the country celebrates Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026).
Continued growth in international travel is supporting Malaysia’s tourism ambitions. As the national carrier, Malaysia Airlines connects travellers with the country’s diverse experiences through its extensive international and domestic network.
The airline also introduces visitors to Malaysian culture and flavours through its signature Malaysian Hospitality.
Fly From London to Kuala Lumpur
Malaysia Airlines operates twice-daily flights from London Heathrow to Kuala Lumpur. The service provides convenient access to the Malaysian capital and destinations across the country.
Malaysia offers experiences throughout the year. Its tropical climate, vibrant cultural heritage and world-class attractions provide plenty to explore.
The country will also host major international events in 2026. One of the highlights is the return of Formula 1 to the Sepang International Circuit for the first time since 2017.
The circuit will host the Formula 1 Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia from 2 to 4 October 2026.
Discover More With the Bonus Side Trip
Eligible international transit passengers can turn their stopover into an opportunity to explore more of Malaysia.
Through Malaysia Airlines’ ‘Bonus Side Trip’ programme, travellers can add an additional Malaysian destination to their itinerary. They can choose to do so on either their outbound or return journey.
The additional destination comes at no extra fare. Travellers only pay the applicable taxes.
This makes it easier to explore Malaysia beyond Kuala Lumpur. Options include George Town’s UNESCO-listed heritage in Penang and the beaches and island scenery of Langkawi.
Further afield, Kuching offers a picturesque waterfront, charming streets and distinctive local cuisine.
Together, these destinations showcase the variety of experiences available across Malaysia.
Experience Malaysian Flavours Onboard
The Malaysian experience begins onboard Malaysia Airlines. The carrier brings local and regional favourites to the skies through its evolving in-flight dining experience.
On selected sectors, travellers can enjoy dishes from the Best of Asia menu. The menu celebrates the diverse flavours and culinary traditions of the region.
Meanwhile, Best of Malaysia is a rotating menu series inspired by the culinary heritage of Malaysia’s different states.
Eligible Business Suite and Business Class guests can also pre-order selected dishes through Chef-on-Call. The airline’s signature satay and vegetarian satay are also available.
On selected services, premium-cabin guests can try the newly introduced Cendol Ice Cream. This twist on a classic Malaysian dessert combines silky coconut ice cream with cendol jelly and other refreshing toppings.
Small Touches That Bring Malaysian Hospitality to Life
These offerings form part of Malaysia Airlines’ broader commitment to Malaysian Hospitality through ‘micromoments’.
The concept focuses on small, thoughtful touches designed to make every stage of the journey more memorable.
Guests can enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity across eligible aircraft. Generous baggage allowances also add convenience to the journey.
Younger travellers can stay entertained with the Pilot Parker Activity Pack.
Together, these offerings help create a more seamless and enjoyable journey. They are designed for travellers flying alone, with family or for business.
