So the plan is to upgrade the seats on low margin routes ASAP and then start to upgrade the seat on their flagship routes from 2026 at the earliest? Makes perfect sense, like almost everything MH does...

BA will also be resuming direct flights to KUL later this year which will put pressure on yields.

The cabin finishes feel like a mix of AC and BA.

IF they do eliminate the former First class or Business Suite seats, I wonder if they will maintain the Platinum lounge at KLIA or rebrand it.

Cheers!

The finishes look sterile with a lot of white going on. It would've been nice to have some Malay inspired motifs on the bulkheads and on the exterior shell of the seat.

Their yields will definitely drop, but BA will use their 787-9 with the old club world on this route so the seats MH currently have are still better than what BA will use.

I flew on BA with this seat and I didn't find it comfortable at all when flat, it felt really cramped.

But will they spray insecticide on me as we approach KUL? That's the classiest part of my previous MH experience.

I thought Malaysia Airlines was going to start focusing on short-medium haul routes, why are the 737s the most neglected part of the fleet?

I think Garuda/Malaysia have started to just give up on the long haul market and just let Singapore yoink all the long haul traffic into South-East Asia, which is disappointing but at least invest in the 737s that are the backbone of your fleets!
