The Sarawak state government has officially completed its acquisition of MASwings Sdn Bhd through its wholly owned entity, AirBorneo Holdings Sdn Bhd, effective Jan 1, 2026.
AirBorneo said the sale and purchase agreement for the acquisition was signed with Malaysia Aviation Group on Feb 12, 2025. From today, AirBorneo assumes full legal and operational responsibility for MASwings. During the initial transition, the MASwings brand will remain, while AirBorneo gradually introduces its new brand identity.
The company thanked passengers, partners, and stakeholders for their cooperation and support during the transition period.
AirBorneo said the acquisition aligns with the state government’s strategic goal of enhancing regional air connectivity and ensuring affordable fares for Sarawak residents. It also supports the state’s broader social and economic development agenda and lays the groundwork for the airline’s next phase of growth as AirBorneo.
The state government extended its gratitude to all employees, partners, and stakeholders for their support throughout the acquisition and transition process.
