Malaysia Airlines Parent Company Malaysia Aviation Group Launches Tender For Sale Of Six Airbus A380-800 Aircraft Or Their Components

Malaysia Airlines parent company Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) has launched a tender for the sale of six Airbus A380-800 aircraft or their components, the company has said in a post on LinkedIn.

MAG, which underwent a restructuring earlier this year, invited interested buyers to send in proposals by noon of August 12.

Group CEO Statement

Group CEO Captain Izham Ismail said in May that MAG was looking to dispose of its A380 fleet, following completion of its debt restructuring.

He said at the time that the group was convinced that the fleet did not fit its future plans, as it "restrategised to position its business as a global travel group".

Thai Airways

Thai Airways, which is undergoing a court approved restructuring, has also been looking to sell the same aircraft in its fleet.
