HK Express Subang Airport DIRECT to Hong Kong from 1st August 2025

HK Express Airways (HK Express) is proud to announce the launch of its highly anticipated direct route from Hong Kong to Kuala Lumpur (Subang Airport), commencing 1 August 2025. This new service will operate daily flights to Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB), offering travellers unparalleled convenience and a faster, more seamless way to access Malaysia’s bustling capital city.

This marks HK Express’ second destination in Malaysia following its successful service to Penang, reinforcing the airline’s commitment to expanding its footprint across Southeast Asia and enhancing connectivity for both leisure and business travellers.

Unlike the city’s larger international gateway KLIA, Subang Airport is strategically located just 30 minutes from downtown Kuala Lumpur, and less than 15 minutes from Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam. This allows travellers swift access to iconic landmarks such as the Petronas Twin Towers, Bukit Bintang shopping district, and cultural hotspots like Chinatown and Little India, as well as nearby nature escapes including Batu Caves.

“We are thrilled to introduce Kuala Lumpur (Subang) as our newest destination,” said Jeanette Mao, CEO of HK Express. “By flying directly into Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, our guests can now enjoy a quick 30-minute transfer to the heart of Kuala Lumpur, making it easier than ever to explore its vibrant culture, world-class attractions, and hidden local gems. This route not only enhances travel convenience but also reinforces the ties between Hong Kong and Malaysia, fostering greater collaboration in tourism, culture, and economic opportunities.”

Adding to this, Datuk Manoharan Periasamy,, Director-General of Tourism Malaysia, welcomed the new service:
“We are delighted to partner with HK Express in opening up this convenient new travel option. Kuala Lumpur has so much to offer – from its iconic skyline and bustling shopping districts to its rich culinary heritage. This route will undoubtedly strengthen tourism and business ties between Hong Kong and Malaysia while supporting our vision of making Kuala Lumpur a premier gateway to Southeast Asia.”
