About Batik Air Malaysia

Batik Air Malaysia (IATA: OD) is a Malaysian hybrid carrier based at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The airline was previously known as Malindo Air, and officially rebranded to Batik Air Malaysia on April 28, 2022, aligning it with the Batik Air branding used elsewhere in the Lion Air Group. Travelers who remember booking with Malindo Air are booking the same airline — same IATA code, same hub, same fleet — simply under its current name.

Batik Air Malaysia is part of Indonesia's Lion Air Group, operated as a joint venture between Lion Air Group and National Aerospace and Defence Industries of Malaysia. It is not aligned with any of the major global airline alliances. The airline positions itself as a hybrid carrier — offering more included service than a pure low-cost operator such as sister brand AirAsia, while keeping fares more accessible than a full-service legacy airline. FareOptic compares Batik Air Malaysia fares across its network to help you find the best OD ticket price.
