PAL returns to Kuala Lumpur after three years

The return of Philippine Airlines PAL to Kuala Lumpur on 8th June 2017 after a three year absence is a positive development for both ASEAN countries. Over eight hundred thousand Overseas Filipino Workers are employed in Malaysia. This service also offers easier access for investment initiatives.

…. The resumption of PAL flights between Manila and Kuala Lumpur will help foster economic and cultural ties between the Philippines and Malaysia. Most importantly, it addresses the clamor for a direct service between the two capital cities. PAL President and COO Jaime J. Bautista

The decision to return to Kuala Lumpur follows the agreement between PAL and Malaysia Airlines to expand their code-share arrangement. This will give passengers from Manila easier access to twelve destinations in Malaysia. Fly PAL into KLIA and connect to  Alor Setar, Johor Bahru, Kota Bharu, Kuala Terengganu, Langkawi and Penang in Peninsular Malaysia. You can also connect to Kota Kinabalu and Tawau in Sabah, Kuching, Miri and Sibu in Sarawak. The Federal Territory of Labuan off the coast of Sabah is also now easily accessible.
