The carrier plans to use the super jumbos  “opportunistically during peak periods to high traffic markets”, according to a statement carried on the Australian Business Traveller website.

Malaysia Airlines is dusting off its A380s and putting them back on the Kuala Lumpur-London run – for a short time only.

The carrier plans to use the super jumbos  “opportunistically during peak periods to high traffic markets”, according to a statement carried on the Australian Business Traveller website.

Malaysia Airlines has indicated that it will stall plans to hand over the super jumbos to a new airline dedicated to Islamic pilgrimages.

All six A380s will now remain in Malaysia Airlines’ mainline fleet and be used across its network to add capacity during periods of high demand, ABT reported.

This will include mid-year flights to London along with Tokyo, Seoul, Sydney and Melbourne.
