Malaysia Airlines began in 1947 as Malayan Airways but was renamed Malaysian Airways following the creation of the Federation of Malaysia in 1963. Following the independence of Singapore from Malaysia, it was renamed Malaysia-Singapore Airlines (MSA) in 1966. MSA ceased operations in 1972 after the formation of two separate entities - Malaysian Airline System (MAS) and Singapore Airlines. The Singaporean Government wanted to develop its international operations, while Malaysia wanted the airline to first focus on domestic and regional growth before finally becoming fully international. The airline needs of the two countries were not compatible

The company is officially called: Malaysia Airlines System, but everyone says MAS of Malaysia Airlines. So we do also!  Malaysia Airlines has grown to become Southeast Asia's largest airline, and one of the world's premier international carriers. Their vast global network serves over 110 cities across 6 continents. Malaysia Airlines has been voted, for the third consecutive year, the "Best Asian Business Airline" by the international readers of Business Travel World magazine. Malaysia Airlines also took 1st place honours in the prestigious 1997 World Business Class Survey - published by the UK agency, In-flight Research Services. This was the second time in recent years Malaysia Airlines has secured the top rating in this highly respected survey of more than 67 international airlines.
