The best and cheapest way to get around Asia. As we travel, we always try to take the best from our experiences and visit as many places as possible. Sometimes because we are overburdened by work commitments, sometimes because we cannot afford financially to take more trips.

In this article:

    Therefore, we need to make the most of our "long journey"! In fact, we present a solution to your request to visit as many places as possible if you are in Asia. After all, Asia is not exactly around the corner, at least not for those of us who live in Italy.

    We still have to come up with tricks to be able to visit different places without spending too much and, as we said before, trying to make the best of it.

    So we have a way to lower costs and enjoy the beauty of the world! A mode offered by the company Malaysia Airlines.

    Malaysia Airlines offers us a pass to visit Asia at bargain prices

    If you like to save money the smart way, just the way we like it, you are in the right place. Or rather you might be thanks to Malaysia Airlines. The Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia-based airline has released a flight ticket that we could call a real pass, offering the opportunity to travel for as little as 107.00 euros per trip.

    Let's take a look at this new type of product and see whether or not it can actually be affordable. Let's go and find out about the MHflyPass in detail.

    A pass for easy travel while lowering costs: MHflyPass

    This new initiative gives us the opportunity, in a nutshell, to travel by air throughout South Asia very easily and at a fixed price. How does this pass work? It is valid for one year and allows us to book up to 3 round trips or 6 one-way flights at a fixed price. It sounds really wonderful, but let's go explore more to see if this MHflyPass is really affordable.

    MHflyPass subscription level

    There are Different subscription levels for sale, divided by price and zones: the "basic" level or zone 1 is priced at 330 euros for 3 trips A/R; or as we said, 6 trips one way.

    The basic pass (zone 1), allows us to travel between Kuala Lumpur and many destinations such as; Jakarta, Medan, Surabaya, Singapore, Bangkok, Phuket, Ho Chi Minh, Phnom Penh and Yangon. The main difference between the basic pass subscription and the other types of passes is the number of destinations and departure points included.

    The MHflypass is conveniently divided into three different zones for travelers to choose the one that best suits their travel needs.

    Zone 2 pass, allows passengers to fly to Kuala Lumpur from cities such as Sabah, Sarawak in addition to many other flights within Peninsular Malaysia. Zone 3 pass, on the other hand, allows passengers who choose it to fly from Sabah and Sarawak to many destinations in Peninsular Malaysia. And there is certainly no shortage of connections to Kuala Lumpur! This is the pass that costs the most, partly because it offers Singapore as a hub; the price is about 590 euros.

    What is the validity of the pass?

    Tickets must be redeemed up to 12 months after the date of purchase. However, one can - in the case of personal issues - change flight dates unlimitedly and free of charge.

    What are the benefits of the pass?

    The benefits are numerous, regardless of whether we book a flight to Hanoi, Manila or Yangon. We list the juiciest ones:

    • Priority check-in
    • Priority boarding
    • Priority luggage storage
    • Choice of place
    • "Go Show" unlimited (ability to board on a flight prior to ours but based on availability)
    • Unlimited free change of dates
    • Extra baggage allowance: 35 kg and 7 kg in the cabin
    • Free snacks and drinks
    • Up to 2,699 Enrich Points can be earned.

    Is the pass a way to cover costs and visit more places?

    Definitely! Considering the individual costs of flights and often the limit on the amount of luggage you can check, it is absolutely advantageous. Something cheaper was offered until a few years ago by the company AirAsia. But it became complex to be able to carry a luggage of more than 20 kg without spending considerable amounts of money.

    Instead with the Malaysia Airlines pass, you can make 3 return flights visit a good portion of Asia and receive premium services such as snacks and drinks on board. In addition, Malaysia Airlines is also one of the members of Oneworld with lots of excellent lounges.

    The idea of saving money becomes more attractive when we consider, for example, how much the prices of flights in Asia have gone up at this moment in history. Therefore, blocking the price of tickets, thanks to a pass that can be used in 1 year's time, is certainly not such a complicated choice to make. Flexibility in this case is everything!

    In conclusion

    By choosing this kind of pass, you can really save a lot and enjoy beautiful and trendy destinations such as Bali. In addition, you can visit dreamy places such as: Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. By saving on flight prices, you can also devote more time to visiting major cities, without missing out on some extra pampering.
