Malaysia Airlines Brings Raya Spirit to life with special Hari Raya video

KLIA, 20 May 2019: Malaysia Airlines today released a special Hari Raya Aidilfitri video, capturing the joy of Hari Raya, which is the feeling of balik kampung. This festive video can be viewed via Malaysia Airlines’ official social media channels.

The two minute and 40 second video titled “Sama-Sama Balik Raya” asks the question as to why we travel miles to return home during the celebration, although we feel that the experience is similar each time. We see the same people, we visit familiar places, eat the same food. The answer to this question is the very thing that warms our hearts as Malaysians and as an airline, which is Malaysian Hospitality. 

Malaysia Airlines Group Chief Executive Officer, Izham Ismail said, “The festivity begins the moment we start our journey home. As a first taste of Malaysian Hospitality for travellers, we are always looking for ways to ensure that our guests get the feeling of being home even before they arrive which is perfectly captured in our festive video called “Sama-Sama balik Raya”.  As an airline, we take pride in being a part of our guests’ balik kampung journey and to us nothing is more rewarding than to ensure they arrive home safely and be reunited with their families and loved ones during the festive season.”  

In the spirit of this Hari Raya, Malaysia Airlines is also running a social media campaign “#MHFundMyBalikKampung” from 15 until 29 May 2019, to unite families for Hari Raya Aidilfitri. Through #MHFundMyBalikKampung, the winner with the most unique caption and the most votes will take return tickets home on Malaysia Airlines for Hari Raya this year.
