Malaysia Airlines has upgraded its Bonus Side Trip (BST) program, offering international travelers a free domestic return flight to one of seven Malaysian destinations when transiting through Kuala Lumpur. This initiative allows passengers to explore Langkawi, Penang, Johor Bahru, Kuantan, Alor Star, Kuala Terengganu, or Kota Bharu at no extra cost. Dersenish Aresandiran, chief commercial officer of Malaysia Aviation Group, said the BST reflects the airline’s commitment to showcasing Malaysia’s cultural richness and hospitality. The program supports ‘Visit Malaysia Year 2026’ by promoting sustainable tourism and encouraging travelers to discover lesser-known local gems beyond the capital.
