PUTRAJAYA: Malaysia Airlines is seeking an injunction to stop the airasia Super App from offering the national carrier's flight tickets for sale, says Anthony Loke.
The Transport Minister revealed this after discrepancies in airline ticket classification and prices for flights from Kuala Lumpur to Tawau became an issue recently."That is why we asked to check multiple sources or the Malaysia Airlines app. This is a dispute between the two companies," he said at a press conference on Monday .
Loke said that the average ticket price for an economy class direct flight to Sabah ranged from RM200 and RM800, depending on when tickets are purchased."We will definitely investigate if that is the case," he said, adding that Malaysia Airlines tickets bought through the airasia Super App are still valid.
However, he acknowledged that this could lead to confusion among consumers as these OTAs were selling flight tickets at a higher price. "This is to ensure that different applications do not take advantage and mark up the price," he said.
