Malaysia Airlines celebrates a series of prestigious accolades, reflecting its “unwavering commitment to excellence and dedication to enhancing every passenger’s journey”.
The national carrier has once again been named an APEX Four Star Major Airline in the 2026 Official Airline Ratings, recognising its consistent excellence in safety, service, and operational performance.
In addition, Malaysia Airlines has been ranked 9th Best Airline in the World in the Condé Nast Traveller UK Readers’ Choice Awards 2025, reflecting the trust and appreciation of travellers worldwide.
The Readers’ Choice Awards are an annual survey by Condé Nast Traveller, where readers vote for their favourite travel experiences, hotels, resorts, destinations, cities, airlines, and more.
The awards are determined entirely by reader votes and audited by an independent agency, underscoring the authenticity of the recognition.
Datuk Captain Izham Ismail, Group Managing Director of Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG), said: “We are deeply honoured to receive these global recognitions, which reflect the unwavering dedication of our people in delivering exceptional experiences with our Malaysian Hospitality.
“Being ranked among the top 10 airlines by Condé Nast Traveller readers and maintaining our APEX Four Star Major Airline status reinforces the trust that travellers place in us.
“We remain committed to raising the bar and strengthening our position among the world’s best airlines.”
The airline further showcased its leadership in aviation and brand experience by receiving two prestigious awards at the Asian Experience Awards 2025 in Singapore: Malaysia Brand Experience of the Year (Airline category) and Malaysia Brand Experience of the Year (Aviation category) for the project “Elevating Brand Experience Through Commercial Strategic Elevation Transformation.”
