Malaysia Airlines owns two subsidiary airlines: Firefly and MASwings. It operates primarily from its main hub Kuala Lumpur International Airport to destinations throughout Asia, Oceania and Europe, as well as its secondary hub Kota Kinabalu International Airport to Taipei and Tokyo (Narita). In August 2014, the Malaysian government's sovereign wealth fund Khazanah Nasional-which then owned 69.37% of the airline-announced its intention to purchase the remaining ownership from minority shareholders and delist the airline from Malaysia's stock exchange, thereby renationalising the airline. (The MAS initials are still being kept by subsidiaries MASkargo and MASwings.) The company headquarters are at Kuala Lumpur International Airport. Malaysia Airlines Berhad ( MAB Malay: Penerbangan Malaysia Berhad), formerly known as Malaysian Airline System ( MAS Sistem Penerbangan Malaysia), and branded as Malaysia Airlines, is the flag carrier of Malaysia and a member of the Oneworld airline alliance.
