Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) and Malaysia Aviation Group (MAG) have partnered to provide a luxurious airport transfer service for eligible Malaysian Airlines passengers at KLIA.
From January 16th, 2025, a fleet of Mercedes-Benz S580e and EQS 500 4MATIC will be used for exclusive private terminal transfers, catering to passengers flying in Business Suite and Business Class, and Enrich Platinum members.
In addition, this service will be extended to Mercedes-Benz customers starting March 1st, 2025.
