The Malaysian flag carrier has commenced five A330-300 flights per week, with the first MH135 service touching down aboard 9M-MTO just before 6:30am on Saturday. The service will add more than 75,000 inbound seats to Brisbane each year.
The event will take place at Surfers Paradise from 14-16 August 2026, and follows extensive beach remediation efforts by Gold Coast Council to repair the massive erosion from the cyclone that scuppered its planned August 2025 dates.
