✈️ Malaysia Airlines Brings Its Luxe New Business Class to Australia
Share
Big news for Aussie flyers who value comfort, privacy, and premium perks in the sky—Malaysia Airlines is stepping things up in a major way.
The airline is not only increasing its flights between Kuala Lumpur and Australia, but it’s also rolling out its stunning new Airbus A330neo, complete with private business class suites that make long-haul travel feel like a personal retreat.
💼 Business Class Just Got a Lot More Exclusive
The new A330neo business class isn’t just an upgrade—it’s a full-blown reinvention.
Think high-walled suites, sliding privacy doors, and lie-flat beds designed to rival some first-class products. With just 28 business class suites onboard, it’s an elite experience from gate to gate.
Passengers can expect:
-
Wireless device charging at your seat
-
A generous 17.3” 4K screen for top-notch inflight entertainment
-
Ample personal storage
-
Free inflight WiFi to stay connected above the clouds
It’s part of the airline’s wider strategy to modernize its long-haul product—and they’re going all in.
📍 First Stop: Melbourne
Melbourne was the lucky launchpad for the new jet, with the A330neo now flying daily on the Kuala Lumpur–Melbourne route since December 2024. And there’s more on the way:
By the end of this year, all three daily flights on this route will be operated by the A330neo.
According to Melbourne Airport CEO Lorie Argus, the move signals just how seriously Malaysia Airlines is taking the Victorian market.
🌏 What's Next?
Malaysia Airlines is also deploying the A330neo on flights to Auckland, and there’s buzz about expanding it to Sydney, which will also see three daily flights to KL by October 2025.
The airline, a Oneworld Alliance member, has committed to 20 A330neo aircraft—with 10 scheduled to be in the sky by the end of 2025, and more rolling out through to 2028.
Even better? The same luxurious business class suite design is coming to Malaysia Airlines' A350 fleet starting in 2026.
