Malaysia Aviation Group will relocate Firefly's jet operations from Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport to Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 on August 19, 2025. Turboprop services will remain at Subang Airport to maintain regional connectivity. Group managing director Datuk Captain Izham Ismail announced the move enhances operational efficiency through shared resources and improved passenger connections. The relocation forms part of a broader network optimization strategy for sustainable jet services. KLIA's expanded capacity supports greater scalability while strengthening Malaysia's primary aviation hub status.

Boeing 737-800 aircraft will operate the transferred routes with 10kg checked baggage and 7kg carry-on allowances. Tawau flights begin August 19, followed by Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, Singapore and Johor Bahru by August 23. Additional routes to Kota Bharu, Terengganu and Sibu start by September, while Penang frequency increases to ten weekly flights by November. Promotional fares begin at RM58 with immediate booking availability. Affected passengers receive alternative arrangements or full refunds under Malaysian Aviation Consumer Protection Code 2016.
