Why You Should Take a Flight to Malaysia

With its vibrant cities, mouthwatering cuisine and idyllic beaches, Malaysia really does have something for everyone. Book your flights to Malaysia today to find out what it offers you.

 

When to Book Flights to Malaysia

The temperatures across Malaysia vary little from month to month, with the mercury hovering around 30˚C throughout the year. Humidity is also fairly constant so you’re guaranteed to be in for some serious heat whenever you book your Cheap Flights to Malaysia.

One thing you do need to consider is the monsoon season. On the eastern side of the peninsula, the rainiest months are November, December and January. Downpours can be extremely heavy and can last for two to three hours. What’s more, a lot of ferries won’t run during this period so if you’re planning on island hopping you’d be better off travelling at a different time of year

The western side of Malaysia is hit by monsoon weather a little earlier with September and October seeing the heaviest rainfall. If you want to give yourself the best chance of clear skies and tropical sunshine, book your Malaysia flight during the European spring and summer months.
