Malaysia Airlines has launched a revamped booking system, a much-needed refresh of what is arguably the most important part of any airline’s website. The old website wasn’t dreadful, but the new system does add some improvements, such as:

- complete fare rules
- better comparison of fares over a date range and different fare bases

And here it is again this week (the fare change is interesting too!)
Here’s the new comparison screen where multiple connection options exist:

Handy hint: Air France start flying to Kuala Lumpur from April next year, so look out for some good introductory fares to Paris around that time.
