Ascend Airways Malaysia gets CAAM nod for passenger operations
The approval follows its successful completion of the air operator certificate variation process.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) has granted Ascend Airways Malaysia Sdn Bhd permission to incorporate passenger operations into its air operator certificate (AOC). This approval comes after the airline successfully completed the AOC variation process, as reported on the company's Facebook page.
The approval encompasses Ascend Airways' inaugural passenger aircraft, the Boeing 737-800 (9M-ASG), within its operations specifications. This marks a crucial milestone towards initiating passenger flights.
Ascend Airways has secured authorization to operate a total of three Boeing B737-800 passenger aircraft under aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance (ACMI) arrangements by the close of 2026. The airline attributes this accomplishment to the commitment, discipline, and teamwork of its staff, as well as the agency's close cooperation and guidance with CAAM during the AOC variation process.
Ascend Airways Malaysia is a national carrier operating under the umbrella of the worldwide ACMI provider, Avia Solutions Group.
