KUCHING: The Sarawak Tourism Federation (STF) wants Malaysia Airlines (MAS) to resume operating rural air services instead of Fly Asian Xpress (FAX) to prevent further loss of confidence in the state’s tourism sector.
Its president Wee Hong Seng said Mulu National Park in particular had been hard hit since FAX took over rural air services following the airline rationalisation exercise on Aug 1.
According to him, more than nine overseas agents had withdrawn from selling Sarawak packages, especially Mulu, while local inbound agents were reluctant to sell packages involving rural air services for fear of incurring losses due to flight cancellations.
