MAB Head of Sales (for Malaysia) Laurent Recoura said in a statement:

The cake is available on Malaysia Airlines flights from Kuala Lumpur to Southeast Asia, South Asia, North Asia, Middle East, Australia, New Zealand and Europe.

Malaysia Airlines to Swap Planes on KL-London Flights

Malaysia Airlines also announced that it will soon change the type of aircraft it uses on its flights between Kuala Lumpur and London.

So far, MAB flew between KL and London using Airbus A380s, but that will now be changed for Airbus A350-900 aircraft and will take place in the last quarter of 2017, once the carrier receives the delivery of four A350 planes.

An unnamed Malaysia Airlines Bhd official said the company decided to do this since they were not able to fill the larger A380 even in economy class. The official said:

Passengers load on the morning flight is not good while that on the night flight is better but still not good enough as the yield is low.

MAB A380 has 420 seats in economy, 66 in business and eight in first class.
