IndiGo has announced the introduction of daily direct flights between Bengaluru and Langkawi, starting December 16, 2024. This marks Langkawi as IndiGo’s 36th international destination and expands its network to cater to the increasing number of Indian tourists visiting Malaysia.
Vinay Malhotra, Head of Global Sales at IndiGo, said, “We are delighted to further expand our network into Malaysia with the launch of direct flights from Bengaluru to Langkawi, our second destination in Malaysia, alongside Kuala Lumpur. With the inclusion of these flights, IndiGo will operate 14 weekly flights to Malaysia from two cities in India. Langkawi is one of the most popular destinations in Malaysia with its pristine beaches and lush rainforests, and the country's recent visa waiver for Indian citizens is bound to create greater demand. IndiGo remains committed to delivering an affordable, timely, courteous, and hassle-free travel experience across our expansive network.”
IndiGo has also recently expanded its international offerings from Bengaluru, adding flights to destinations such as Mauritius and Bali, enhancing the city's position as an international travel hub. The airline now connects Bengaluru to over 60 domestic destinations and more than 10 international locations, further extending its global reach.
Langkawi, an archipelago of 99 islands, is recognised for its natural beauty and attractions, including the Langkawi Sky Bridge and UNESCO-listed mangrove forests, making it a popular destination for a variety of travellers.
