Malaysia Airlines A330-300 Business Class Review - Kuala Lumpur to Denpasar (Bali)

Welcome to Kuala Lumpur International Airport! I've been to Malaysia quite a few times in the past, but I never get to fly with Malaysia airlines. This morning, thanks to Oman Air, I'm finally going to fly with them to Bali Denpasar on an A330 aircraft. Hopefully, it'll be a great experience. Let's go!

One of the best things about your vids Rory is that your voice is calm and almost meditative

[@RoryDing]

Thank you 😊

That’s so true. And I think that is why all his vids have been so interesting.

And we’ll done once again mate (Rory) I’ll be checking out your Melbourne - Europe vids again over next few days as I need a refresher on the Aircraft types n seats etc. It’s great to know we can always come to your Channel and find whatever we need. You’ve been a great help to many many people I’m sure. Happy Travels and hopefully we get to meet you somewhere in this crazy world one day. Cheers Kev

First time watching your travel video. Great video and commentary. I’m also impressed with MAS in flight seat layout, f&b and service. Never transited in KLIA but it does look appealing. Would try one day.

[@RoryDing]

Thank you for watching! Glad your enjoyed this video 😊

Hi Rory thank you for the video.The hotel is a great idea especially if you have a long stop over. Your meal in business class looked very good hope you enjoyed it. Enjoying your trip can't wait for next video. Thank you

Omg your review is so detailed and the best I've ever seen! I feel like I was travelling with you lol😊. I think Malaysia Airlines should thank you like a big time... this review is like a very positive documentary for Malaysia Airlines.

Thank you for your compliments 😊

[@aussiejohn5835]

Another amazing presentation, Rory and almost good enough to entice me to fly. 😅

Thank you John!! I love flying as much as catching the train! Hopefully one of my videos would be good enough to entice you to fly one day!! 😆😀

The business class lady who greets everyone by last name might get some tricky names sometimes, great review

[@dobermannmy]

Nice vlog. Wise choice to grab food at MH business lounge rather than first class lounge. I did the same too lol

[@well-blazeredman6187]

Good review. I had a broadly positive experience with MA last year. The long-haul product is very good and the short-haul's good too. But the airline cancelled a connecting flight and that makes me wary of trusting them again until they have fully recovered from the pandemic.

[@unitedcomputers]

Malaysia Airlines have certainly gone up a notch or three !

[@ryansofly]

I always had very sub par experiences at the First Class dining room. Oh! There used to be a small self serve buffet at the main First lounge, misit be a victim of COVID. I've always found the catering to be heaps better in the business lounge. The so called premium economy seats in the A330 used to be business ... But they all got squashed together using less space with the Vantage shell seats. Last time I took this flight, it was a clapped out 737-800😅. Can't go wrong with MH Nasi Lemak, some of the best in the sky.

[@fsinclair8818]

The 9am flight is always a A330, it's a clapped out 737 for the rest of the day. The A330 'proper business' experience to Bali makes for a decent value points redemption in my opinion.

[@juliekohry9385]

PTSD from being in that KLIA terminal during covid when everything was closed. Very depressing place. My favourite thing about Malaysian Airways is the boarding music lol.

The meal is too “standard” for the business class. Like your video ❤

[@EncikBeruang8698]

Hi, can I use the lounge in satellite terminal if my flight gate is at the main terminal? Thanks

[@robertsnary472]

I flew Malaysian from Kota Kinabalu to KL business class 737 then KL to LHR on A350, was disappointed on the A350 as the so called flat bed couldn’t go flat as my legs were being pressed up against the IFE ( in flight entertainment system) Plus the seat wasn’t long enough for me to stretch out on ( I am 2.02m tall and well built) service on board was good but I did t get to try lounge at KL due to aero train not working and limited time between flights meaning it was a bit of a rush to clear security before boarding LHR flight

[@an8id62]

It's a shame that you never got to try MAS on long-haul flights. The food and portion sizes were great. Especially the satay. They might be cost-cutting right now considering how bankrupt the government is. It'll be interesting to watch your review of MAS on their long haul.

[@HiteshBhagatGameTech]

of all the other state owned carriers, i think MAS offer the best service.

[@ashleighAshlee]

After flying business and economy, my observation is the air steward and stewardess attitude in business class and economy class is like and night, and I'm referring to basic politeness and etiquette. - from a Malaysian

[@paulkazzer]

Great review. Thank you. Malaysian has the best nasi lemak and satay out of Singapore Airlines and Garuda. Reason enough to fly them.

[@RoryDing]

I agree! It’s a shame that they didn’t serve satay on my flight

[@starsaber100]

As someone who uses both SIA and MAS, as much I enjoy SIA flight, I certainly do not enjoy SIA food as much as to MAS food😅😅😅 I appreciate SIA free wifi tho

[@Dominum87]

Mas sucks. Sia is the way

[@awaruaspirit8527]

MH is such a come down after flying Omanair (plane, seat comfort, catering, service) That certainly was my experience flying from NZ to Europe on an Omanair ticket last September. A real shame to see Malaysia's demise from a 5 star airline (and to think i rated them higher than SQ years ago because I truly thought that). The crew are still warm. The Auckland to KL leg can be such a lottery. You might get lucky and get a flight operated by their A350 (hint 27A is a great seat in scum class. Well, I like it) or you will be stuck in purgatory on their ex-AirBerlin, pensioner, A330-200s, contorted with your ankles near your ear lobes! I believe they've ordered A330-900s which would really up their competiveness. The A339 is a superb aircraft for passenger comfort. Better than the A359 or the 789 in my humble opinion.

[@s4099572]

I agree, this type of food that was served is now analogous to some economy class food now. There is no way that this food is comparable to say Starlux’s economy class which is way better than what's served here.

[@chairmandan1794]

You weren't wrong in downgrading SQ!!!

[@rafanhossain4314]

I took the Malaysia Airlines from Melbourne to Kuala lumpur for transit to Saudi arabia😊

[@News.happenings.updates]

As a Former Employee of MH… The Staff is friendly but the service and facilities onboard needs to upgrade to the current situation with other Airlines. .. They announced they made profit, let’s give them a bit more time their routes were taken away, then came the Pandemic… I still give a thumbs up to their services.

[@jeffreytam1514]

KLIA is notorious for being an "traveller-unfriendly" airport. Other than the confusing signage you saw, the Aerotrain is broken all the time. You are lucky that you grasped a room in Sama Sama Hotel with a nice view. The room I stayed had no window at all as if it was a cell. Should give a thumb up to Malaysia Airlines who delivered warm Malaysian hospitality. It is also one of my favourite airlines.

[@stevenlee7195]

surprisingly i found KLIA much tourist friendly than Changi. Never liked Changi other than the hospitality and friendliness of the custom officers, the total opposite for KLIA staff.

[@ngkeong3387]

Yes, klia really horrific hub for air travel. All the board of directors seems sleeping at work. So run down the whole place

[@kerrchingleong5818]

What about aerotrain? Already operation ?

[@harismalic5632]

Malaysian Airlines has really dropped their game. Alot of their fleet is run down and tired. Alot of their staff are also not as friendly and welcoming as they once were. I flew Melbourne KL recently return and it's was a terrible experience

[@roderick2105]

I think your videos would be even more helpful if you included details of your flight ticket, the price paid and any possible discount available !!

[@bonifacebanta4590]

I'm surprised that MH's short haul business class did not serve their iconic chicken satay as an appetizer.

[@RoryDing]

Just flew SQ from Singapore to Denpasar They also didn’t serve satay in business 🥲😅

Great review but business class feels like over kill for such a short flight. The Malaysian Airlines staff are alway that good as well - stark contrast to Qantas.

[@pdaddy4898]

On the flipside a cheaper means for Rory to review the Business class.

[@jjjddd231]

Nothing wrong with Qantas staff. I would never fly Malaysian Airlines due to their poor safety record and I would always choose Qantas due to their unsurpassed safety record.

[@RoryDing]

@@jjjddd231to be fair apart from the two unfortunate incidents in 2014, Malaysia airlines hasn’t had a crash since 1995

[@jjjddd231]

@@RoryDing To lose one may be regarded as a misfortune, to lose two looks like carelessness! (Oscar Wilde). It is well known that many airlines had chosen to stop flying over eastern Ukraine because of the perceived risk from the ongoing conflict, prior to the downing of MH17. Malaysian clearly decided not to err on the side of caution.

[@ughggnvgyhvgnjbhh8372]

Yeh but Singapore, Garuda, Vietnam, BA all flew that same route in a 1 hour period

[@harrygreenwood4899]

I flew from Sydney to Milan using Malaysian and Oman there is no comparison between the airlines I would never fly Malaysian again lack of storage in business class and cramped seat - terrible experience.

[@jansenaymes6782]

The quality has been deteriorating. Fly with Malaysia Airlines Business Class late last year to Bali. Hospitality was there but quality was subpar compared to other Business Class. The food sucked, services was so and so, overall I was expecting more. The food was a big let down. I had better food with AirAsia even in Economy... 😂😂
