PETALING JAYA: A coffee table book that chronicles the 85-year history of national carrier Malaysia Airlines has been launched.

Entitled “Rising to a New Horizon: A New Journey Begins”, it traces the untold stories of the airlines' journey from its humble beginnings flying out of a small airfield in 1947 with just five passengers onboard to becoming a world-class airline today, carrying 40,000 passengers daily to over 900 destinations.

"Over the years, we are proud to see how Malaysia Airlines Group has been a catalyst in accelerating national milestones including some of its latest achievements, one of them was being the first airline to ship the first batch of Covid-19 vaccines to Malaysia and the first airline in Malaysia to operate SAF-powered flights for both cargo and commercial flights," said Dr Wee during the book launch at Malaysia Airlines Academy here Thursday .

MAG chairman Tan Sri Wan Zulkiflee Wan Ariffin said as countries around the world were opening their borders following the Covid-19 pandemic, MAG felt it was timely for the launch of its first ever coffee table book. He also said that as the world battles against the Covid-19 pandemic, with the aviation industry being among the most severely impacted, the Group has proactively transformed the organisational culture and work procedures, boosting customer experience through digital technologies, while enhancing the Malaysian hospitality experience.
