In a thrilling development for travel enthusiasts and business travellers alike, Firefly, Malaysia’s renowned premium short-haul airline, is set to make the skies even more accessible.
The airline is all geared up to expand its jet services with the highly anticipated launch of direct flights from the enchanting island of Penang to the bustling city of Bangkok on 3 November 2023.
Discover Penang’s rich culture and scenic beauty
Known as the ‘Pearl of the Orient,’ Penang is a captivating blend of cultures and natural beauty. Travellers to Penang can immerse themselves in its rich history, explore the charming streets of George Town (a UNESCO World Heritage site), savour diverse culinary delights, and soak in the sun on the island’s pristine beaches. Whether you’re a history buff, a foodie, or a nature lover, Penang offers something for everyone.

On the other end of this exciting new route, we have the vibrant metropolis of Bangkok. As Thailand’s capital, it’s a city that never sleeps. Known for its dynamic street life, ornate temples, and a world-renowned street food scene, Bangkok is a destination that can satisfy the needs of culture seekers, shopaholics, and food enthusiasts alike. Firefly’s new route means you can now explore the heart of Thailand more easily.
