Our flagship lounge in KL International Airport is one of the largest in the world and has been an award winner many times. These awards are fine recognitions of the consumers trust in our premium products and consistent high service standards. It is also the result of our employees\u2019 dedication to deliver only the best to our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s win is yet another feather in our cap and I am confident it will further spur us in taking our premium product and service standards to greater heights and remain the most preferred airline brand not only in Asia but globally,&#8221; he added.
