FIREFLY LAUNCHES “CYBER OCTOBER” a YEAR-END, #MYCyberSale PROMO
WITH A STORY TELLING CONTEST

Following the overwhelming demand from year-end holidays and in support of #MYCyberSale, Firefly has launched yet another amazing flight promotion. 

This year-end promotion will start with an all-in one-way fare of RM59 to all Firefly’s exciting domestic destinations which include popular leisure hotspots such as Ipoh, Johor Bahru and Penang. 

The fares will be up for sale only for a two (2) week period i.e. 29 September 2014 to 12 October 2014, available for travel between 6 October 2014 and 24 October 2015.

“This year-end promo is especially put-together as our way of thanking our customers for choosing Firefly as their preferred airline. The extremely affordable pricing on all Firefly flights will enable more travelers to enjoy a hassle-free holiday that is easy on the wallet and experience Firefly’s hospitality,” explained Ignatius Ong, Firefly’s Chief Executive Officer.

 “Johor Bahru is the south gateway to Singapore and the robust development of Iskandar Malaysia coupled with family-centered and shopping attractions such as Legoland, Hello Kitty Town and Johor Premium Outlet make Johor Bahru an increasingly attractive destination for both the business and leisure travelers. 

"On the other hand, the city of Ipoh is famous for its local cuisine. Its food culture is driven by its Chinese population. For some fun in the sun, The Lost World of Tambun is a theme park built around the natural hot springs. There are water slides and thermal pools for therapeutic bathing, which is an excellent attraction site for family vacations”, added Ong.

The “Cyber October” contest will run for two (2) days i.e. 29 September 2014 to 1 October 2014 where jetsetters are given the chance to share their best or worst travel experience(s), business or leisure, and win two (2) return tickets from Subang to Penang. 

The more dramatic your story is, the higher the chance you stand to win those tickets. Participants are advised to visit Firefly’s website, key in their particulars and click send. 

The participation form will be sent to contest@fireflyz.com.my . The winner will be selected and informed via email.

In tandem with the “Cyber October” contest, Firefly will run a “Spot the billboard” contest through its online and print advertisements. The contest will run for a two (2) week period starting from 29 September to 12 October 2014. 

Participants have to identify the location of Firefly's GREEN billboard, snap a photo of it, upload & tag Firefly with a caption. 

Winners with the correct answer will be announced on Firefly’s social media channels. 

The first prize winner will walk away with two (2) return Firefly flight tickets from Subang to Penang with RM 100 worth of Firefly merchandise. 

The second winner will walk away with two (2) return Firefly flight tickets from Subang to Johor Bahru and RM 100 worth of Firefly merchandise.

“It is our aim to make air travel a pleasant and memorable experience for all our customers. What’s more, Firefly offers all passengers the convenience of complimentary 20kg checked baggage allowance and in-flight refreshment, 30 minute check-in buffer, web and self-check-in facilities, as well as the opportunity to accrue and redeem Enrich points– all essential conveniences for busy individuals travelling during peak periods. 

"We urge everyone out there to quickly take advantage of this promo fare and plan their holidays ahead to avoid disappointment,” concluded Ong.

Firefly anticipates a much higher passenger traffic going through all the airports it flies from starting this December and urges its passengers travelling during this time to use the Automated Online Check-in Service that’s available for Singapore and all Firefly domestic routes. 

The Automated Check-in Service will allow passengers to skip the queue at the physical check-in counters and breeze through the airport.

And in support of its Beyond Convenience tagline, Firefly launched an Infants Fly For Free promo aimed at those travelling with babies below the age of two (2). This promo ends 30 September 2014.
