Member Miku from Suitesmile Chat shared a great Malaysia Airlines Business Class promo fare from Kuala Lumpur to Taipei. Kai Jin later shared that a similar fare is bookable from Johor Bahru, making this deal very attractive for Singapore-based travellers.
This promo fare is part of the airline’s Matta Fair, which ends on 28 Apr 2025.
Johor Bahru to Taipei and Hong Kong for S$529
