Malaysia Airlines reports 10% passenger growth in India

Global Travel Post reported that Malaysia Airlines recorded 10% passenger growth in India during the first half of 2026.

The figure, if confirmed against the airline’s underlying announcement, would indicate strengthening demand on a market important to leisure, visiting-friends-and-relatives, corporate and connecting travel.

India–Malaysia travel also offers opportunities to combine Kuala Lumpur with other Malaysian destinations or use the city as part of a wider Southeast Asian itinerary.

B2B takeaway: Travel sellers should examine the underlying passenger metric, comparison period and route-level performance before using the growth figure in market presentations or commercial forecasts.
