"Very bad experience"
S Jaydan (Australia)
✅ Trip Verified |
Very bad experience. Flight schedule keep changing when your flight is nearby and the they don’t want to listen you. Never get any emails reply and they don’t provide any refund. So be careful before choosing this airlines.

"They have zero care for passengers"
Pricto Thomas (Australia)
Not Verified | Unreliable. Regret traveling with them. Flight got cancelled 4 days before, due to operational requirements. I had their travel insurance, which doesn’t cover that. They have zero care for passengers. They send me another ticket with missing connection flight. Their customer care never picked up the phone. I literally went to airport counter and got another ticket and ended up 14 hour transit time at KLIA airport. Try avoid flying with them and never buy their insurance. It’s a joke. Covers nothing.

"changed my flight time without reason,"
Willis Tang (Malaysia)
✅ Trip Verified | Malindo Air has changed my flight time without reason, I call back many time service center, it not pick up and failure system setting. Then I email 6x urgent email to recall me back. From my last experience, it take 1 month to reply which i already done travelling. No reply, no answer. It seems that the air ticket just burn out like that? .

"flight was changed one full day"
P Storck (Malaysia)
Not Verified | Totally unreliable! The return flight was changed one full day, as if it doesn't cost anything to stay another night in KL. Then the time of return flight has changed back and forth twice. Come on? During the flight the staff does not really enforce the mask mandate. I won't fly with Batik/Malindo anymore.

"Recommend using another airline"
Peter Rogers (Australia)
Not Verified | Perth to Kuala Lumpur. Malindo cancelled our return flight KL to Perth at short notice causing us 4 days additional hotel, food and extra leave from unhappy employers, who served verbal notice. Malindo's response they don’t care, no compensation for our losses. Recommend using another airline

"Refund requests submitted but ignored"
Bruce Shingles (Australia)
Not Verified | Purchased $2200 of fares to Bali before Malindo ceased Australian operations. Refund requests submitted but ignored. When pushed, they will promise to process but they then go to ground and ignore you.

"Only advice is don't book any flights with this company!"
John Brauns (Australia)
Not Verified | Because of the pandemic, our trip/flights to Bali was cancelled by the company. They dont give any money back but give travel vouchers. Anyway, we are now in a position to rebook our trips. The voucher says we have till the 20th May to rebook. I tried to rebook on the 12 May and entered the Travel voucher number only to be told that these vouchers had been used already! I have emailed Malindo in the past and it usually takes them a month to reply so it looks like we have lost our money! Over $1000 lost! No point trying to ring them as others say they cant get through! Only advice is don't book any flights with this company!

"not fly this airline again"
Muhammad Jalaluddin (Malaysia)
✅ Trip Verified | I was supposed to board a 3.50pm flight today and it was delayed until 8.50pm. Sms told covid restriction by MKN. Really mad. How come you delay a flight to such a long period and it is only fly locally. Keep your promise. Very bad service. Not even a complimentary voucher meal given to your passenger. Will not fly this airline again.

"regret not sticking to the competitor"
Teoh Heng Chia (Malaysia)
✅ Trip Verified | flown many times with Malindo. Generally not great and not terrible. This trip im extremely disappointed with Malindo. Our mid morning flight was cancelled and changed to 8:30 am. Then 3 days before flight, it was changed to 7 pm. Basically our whole day has been destroyed. I thought I’d help Malindo by flying them but now regret not sticking to the competitor.

"Is this legal to hold our money"
Divya Pandey (India)
✅ Trip Verified | I had booked my air ticket with Malindo Air and my journey date was 03 May 2020. The flight was cancelled from Malindo side stating the reason for covid. it has been more than 1-1/2 years now and when contacted to Malindo air in October 2021, they replied to my email that the Malindo flights are not operational from Kuala Lumpur to any part of India. Is this legal to hold our money and be in mercy of Malindo. There are bubble flights operational with other flights (Air Asia etc) and I need to travel urgently to India. I have asked for refund via email communication but the email reply / process from Malindo side is very slow.
