Hotel Bookings with Firefly Holidays
Firefly, Malaysia’s first community airline, is adding another feature to their services, Firefly Holidays. Now the public can book their flights and hotel accommodation at the Firefly website, all under one roof.
Since the start of operations in April this year, the airline began its service of point to point travel out of its hub in Penang, catering to the northern part of Peninsular Malaysia as well as to two top destinations in Thailand – Phuket and Koh Samui. Since then, Firefly has soared to greater heights when they announced their new hub in Subang with Penang as the start-off destination.
Last week, the airline extended their services from Subang offering flights to Kota Bharu and Langkawi beginning 17 November 2007. Ideal in the eyes of many, the move is in line with Firefly’s plan in connecting communities throughout the region. With the convenient location of the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, settlers throughout the Klang Valley now have the option of travelling whilst saving time and cost all at the same time.
“Firefly Holidays is here to complement our flights in providing our customers with the convenience and ease in making their travel plans. This is what our customers want - affordable and convenient one stop centre for their travel plans with flights and accommodation - and this is what Firefly is all about. Now with school holidays around the corner, family and friends can take advantage of this new product from Firefly and make their travel plans faster and more effective,” said Firefly Managing Director, Eddy Leong.
With links to almost 140 hotels in Malaysia and Thailand as a start, Firefly Holidays is offering choices to its customers in finding accommodation that best suit their needs and wants. There are options of accommodation available not only at all Firefly destinations but also at other popular destinations such as Cameron Highlands, Lumut and Malacca in Malaysia, and Bangkok, Phang Nga and Chiang Mai in Thailand. Prices for accommodation start from RM 80 *.
All that the public will need to do is go to www.fireflyz.com.my and follow the quick and easy steps to book their ideal holiday package. Alternatively, they can call the Firefly Call Centre at 03 – 7845 4543 or mail to hotelinfo@fireflyz.com.my for any queries or group bookings.
