Malindo Air

Malindo Air is Certified as a 3-Star Airline for the quality of its airport and onboard product and staff service. Product rating includes seats, amenities, food & beverages, IFE, cleanliness etc, and service rating is for both cabin staff and ground staff.

“Malindo Air describes itself as a premium airline, but in reality, it is more of a low-cost carrier with a small Business Class and IFE. Seat comfort in Economy is fine for 2-3 hours, but for longer routes this is poor. IFE is satisfactory where offered. Recliner seats in Business Class are okay for 2-3 hour flights and meal standards are fair. Economy is pre-purchase or buy-on-board F&B, and the standards are not good. Cabin staff service can be good but inconsistent.”
