Firefly, Your Community Airline, was awarded the "Most Promising Brand of the Year" award, during the Putra Brand Awards Gala Night, held at One World Hotel, Petaling Jaya yesterday.
The Putra Brand Awards measures brands by consumer preference, through a robust consumer research methodology, to determine Malaysians’ favourite local and international brands. Organized in association with Malaysia’s Most Valuable Brands (MMVB), the Putra Brand Awards is a recognition and brand valuation exercise initiated by the Association of Accredited Advertising Agents Malaysia (4As).
The evaluation is based on a very stringent set of criteria, which include international brand expression, innovative range of products, branding and product development, business size, ADEX track record for the past year and competitive strength in the industry.
Firefly’s CEO, Ignatius Ong said, “Firefly is thrilled to accept this distinguished award. It will certainly spur us to greater heights in serving our customers as we continue to be one of the best customer-oriented regional airlines in the industry, offering an excellent flying experience to all our passengers".
“Firefly constantly strives to enhance its services to address the needs of both business and leisure travellers alike. As part of the turboprop operations expansion plan, Firefly recently introduced its newest service between Kota Bharu and Johor Bharu, which will witness its inaugural flight tomorrow. Firefly is the only commercial airline to provide direct access between the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia and the Southern state of Johor.
“To be honoured with such a prestigious award, right before an event that signifies Firefly’s continued growth, is a great accomplishment for the company. A two-in-one celebration!” he added.
Firefly has also received other numerous awards and recognition. The most recent was when Firefly was conferred “Superbrand” status in 2011. Other awards received include the 2010 Frost & Sullivan Value Airline of the Year award and the Green Initiative of the Year 2010 award by Leaders in Aviation in conjunction with the Doha Aviation Summit. Firefly is also recognised as the Best Brand in Aviation for the Brand Laureate.
