WHETHER YOU ARE AN F1 fan, tennis enthusiast or golf lover, jetting off to a far-flung destination with a group of like-minded devotees to watch your heroes go all-out for victory is the pinnacle of enthusiastic spectatorship.
Malaysia Airlines sees sports fans as unique types of travellers and understands what makes them tick. The roar of the crowd, the smell of the grass and the excitement in the air is an experience that can’t be replicated. However, combining live sporting events and exploring new destinations is how MHsports, the airline’s new group travel solution, allows you to take your fandom to the next level.
MHsports caters to the unique requirements of modern international sports fans so travellers can enjoy a range of benefits, including special fares, 10 kg extra baggage allowance, end-to-end integration and total flexibility. So, if a friend suddenly decides to join the group, you can add names to the ticket up to 24 hours before issue, no sweat.
Global Experiences
Attending competitions worldwide is a great way to experience different cultures and traditions. From thrilling matches on the UK’s hallowed football pitches to joyful baseball games in South Korea and the emerging and heart-racing motorsports of Thailand, each country has its own unique take on sports fandom. By attending games in different parts of the world, you’ll get to see how sports bring people together and reflect the culture.
Imagine yourself in the stands as Manchester United wins a match, the world’s best tennis players face-off at Wimbledon or golf’s greatest names compete in the Dubai Desert Classic.
In addition to experiencing local life and seeing your favourite teams, travelling can also be a great way to meet new people and make friends. Whether sitting next to a kindred die-hard fan in the stands or striking up a conversation with a local wearing your team’s jersey, sports bring people together regardless of language or cultural barriers.
And if you decide you’re having such a good time, you don’t want to leave? MHsports allows you to extend your trip and carry on the celebration easily.
