New routes, more staff for Malaysia Airlines by year-end
Malaysia Airlines will add 11 new routes and embark on a hiring spree by year-end amid a boost in demand from international customers, CE Peter Bellew said Wednesday. The carrier is in the midst of a turnaround after suffering 2 tragedies in 2014. Bellew said the number of routes being introduced now was the most in a single year in the airline’s history, and that the company was evaluating at least 26 more routes that could be introduced by 2018. The airline, he said, was seeing an increase in customers in Asia, particularly from China, India and Australia, despite a fall in the number of fliers to Europe and the US. Malaysia Airlines was looking to hire more staff towards the end of this year and add several wide-body aircraft to its fleet. However, he did not discuss on how many jobs would be introduced. <br/>
