Malaysia Airlines enhances travel accessibility for students
Malaysia Airlines has forged a strategic one-year partnership with Holiday Tours & Travel Sdn Bhd (HTT) and Taylor’s Education Group (TEG) to enhance travel accessibility for students.
Recognising the significance of affordable travel for students, Malaysia Airlines in collaboration with HTT, will offer exclusive student fares and additional 10kg baggage allowance, among other benefits to ensure a seamless experience onboard with Malaysian Hospitality. The tripartite partnership will encompass joint efforts including marketing and travel services to ensure that over 22,000 students from TEG will benefit from comfortable and economical travel options.
Dersenish Aresandiran, chief commercial officer of Airlines from MAG said: “At Malaysia Airlines, we are dedicated to connecting people and places with our signature Malaysian Hospitality. Partnering with Holiday Tours & Travel and Taylor’s Education Group allows us to extend our commitment to delivering exceptional travel experiences specifically tailored for the student community. This collaboration offers more than just special rates, but an opportunity to enrich the educational journey, making it one of the best student travel programmes in the industry. We are excited to support students as they embark on their educational and personal adventures, and to play a role in bridging the gap between academic aspirations and real-world experiences.”
Dato’ Loy Teik Ngan, executive chairman, Holiday Tours & Travel, said: “Holiday Tours always strives to create smooth, hassle-free, and exceptional travel experiences, and this partnership with Malaysia Airlines and Taylor’s Education Group allows us to extend that mission to the student community. We are excited to play a pivotal role in making travel more accessible, ensuring that students can pursue their educational and personal journeys with ease and comfort. This collaboration marks a new chapter in our commitment to serving the needs of the future generation.”
Abby Lew Tong, Group executive director, Taylor’s Education Group, said: “At Taylor’s Education Group, we are always striving to enhance the student experience both inside and outside the classroom. This partnership with Malaysia Airlines Berhad and Holiday Tours & Travel reflects our commitment to making education more enriching for our students. By providing special travel rates and benefits, we are not only easing the financial burden of travel but also encouraging our students to explore new opportunities and broaden their horizons. We believe this collaboration will greatly benefit our students and further strengthen the ties between education and real-world experiences.”
The partnership provides exclusive discounted fares to HTT and TEG, expanding the range of destinations beyond what was previously available, with 19 additional destinations. The airline has also introduced exclusive student fares via HTT for all TEG students to various Malaysia Airlines destinations, whereas other agents only offer student fares to a limited selection of destinations. HTT alone has access to the full range of Malaysia Airlines destinations, excluding the Maldives, for a one-year selling period.
