Our guests can expect a new level of comfort, quality service and a seamless flight experience.”

This strategic partnership benefits Malaysia Airlines Berhad in terms of participation in MyCEB-fuelled trade events, gaining first-hand insights from thought leaders in the industry, as well as creating a stronger brand presence in the business and major events industry. Meanwhile, MyCEB will benefit from Malaysia Airlines Berhad’s proposition of global connectivity and presents a competitive and attractive edge in securing bid to host international business and major events in the country.
