Malaysia Airlines to operate first passenger flight powered by sustainable fuel

Malaysia Airlines Bhd will operate the first passenger flight using sustainable aviation fuel between Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) and Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) on June 5 in conjunction with World Environment Day. The flights MH603 (KUL - SIN) and MH606 (SIN - KUL) will be operating on Boeing 737-800 aircraft, using a blend of approximately 38 per cent sustainable fuel and conventional jet fuel. Malaysia Airlines said the initiative reaffirms its commitment towards a sustainable tomorrow and marks significant progress towards achieving a cleaner, more viable fuel source for regular flights by 2025.
