Malaysia Airlines replaces its A380 with a B777. DR-Malaysia
The Airbus A380 of Malaysia Airlines will no longer land in the Charles de Gaulle airport starting August 5th.
The company decided to operate its daily rotation between Paris and Kuala Lumpur with a Boing 777-200 of 282 seats, versus the 494 spots of the Airbus A380 that was put in place on March 2013.
The disappearance of the Super Jumbo (tested by TourMag.com in June 2014) will thus reduce the seat offer by 42% between the two cities.
This decision adds to Air France’s choice to no longer serve the Malaysian capital starting next October 25th.
Yet, the traffic between France and Malaysia was at a 4.9% growth in 2014, for 358,955 passengers according to DGAC figures.
