Firefly hits big at MATTA

Firefly's Managing Director, Eddy Leong said, "This is the third time we are participating in KL MATTA Fair and the response this time is very encouraging despite the weak outlook and to our pleasant surprise, it is in fact higher than last year with a very high percentage of sales on both domestic and international flights, as well as the holiday's packages. Its only the second day of the fair and Firefly promotional flights at RM38 to any domestic destination is almost taken up whereas the holiday packages that are guaranteed for its value are the hot buying item.

The favourite domestic destination is Langkawi with our direct flight from Subang starting 01-May with our family package snapped up since yesterday. Koh Samui is also very popular as we are one of the two airlines flying from Subang, into the beautiful and serene island every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. As our introductory promotion for our new flight to Phuket starting also on the 01-May, a 3-days-2-nights return flights and accommodation at the luxury 5-star Hilton Arcadia Resort, only selling at RM509 per person (all-in price), is a delight to all customers that dropped by at Firefly's booths.”
