Malaysia Airlines destinations
Malaysia Airlines, Malaysia's flag carrier, traces its origins back to 1947, when Malayan Airways was jointly formed by Singapore's Straits Steamship Company and the Ocean Steamship Company of Liverpool. The carrier was registered in Singapore and was set up for linking several cities within Malaya, as well as to provide an air connection with Borneo and other parts of the region. In 1947, the newly formed airline started scheduled operations with a single Airspeed Consul, linking Singapore-Kallang Airport with Kuala Lumpur and Penang, and Kuala Lumpur with Kota Bharu and Kuantan. By 1948, the domestic route network comprised Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Singapore, Kota Bharu and Kuantan, whereas international flights to Batavia, Bangkok, Medan, Saigon and Palembang were also operated. In May 1949, Malayan Airways took over the Singapore–Kuching–Labuan–Jesselton route, which had been operated by the Royal Air Force since May 1946 and was the only air link between Singapore and Borneo. The run was extended to Sandakan in October that same year. In early 1950, the route network was 6,504 miles (10,467 km) long.
