Malaysia Airlines has since introduced many initiatives to elevate its onboard experience, including special giveaways for young travellers, refreshed amenity kits, and improved soft furnishings such as larger blankets and redesigned duvets and mattress covers. Last year, the airline was the first and only airline to introduce unlimited complimentary Wi-Fi to all passengers travelling on selected widebody aircraft, regardless of cabin class or loyalty tier. Building on this success, the airline will activate the Wi-Fi connectivity on the 737-8 aircraft by the end of 2024, extending the complimentary and unlimited Wi-Fi service to all passengers travelling on the aircraft. The airline currently owns a fleet of four (4) 737-8 aircraft.
