Chelsea is being flown by Malaysia Airlines for its 2008 Asian tour which will also see them in action at the Shah Alam Stadium on Tuesday.The national carrier has already taken the 2005/6 English Premier champions to Guangzhou for their first game against Guangzhou Pharmaceutical where Chelsea won 4-0 on Wednesday.
The MAS chartered flight took the team to Macau yesterday where they will play Chengdu Blades on Saturday before heading to Malaysia to take on the national selection.
After that, Chelsea will fly MAS to Russia for the Railways Cup.
MAS signed an agreement yesterday with football consultancy ProEvents International Sdn Bhd to be the Chelsea official air charter for the tour.
Last year, Malaysia Airlines (MAS) chartered football club Manchester United.
“When it comes to providing air charter services for world-class soccer clubs, MAS has consistently maintained its competitive edge for many years as the preferred carrier for these recognised teams.
“This is evidenced by our success in securing the business to fly 5-star soccer clubs like Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona and now Chelsea with an entourage of about 100 persons,” said its executive director and chief financial officer Tengku Datuk Azmil Zahruddin.
Fast-tracked check-in for departures, specially made in-flight seat headrests with the Chelsea Asia Tour 2008 insignia, seamless baggage restoration on arrival and exclusive in-flight entertainment are among the special treatment arrangements the airline has put in place for this purpose.
The Chelsea-Malaysian selection match will kick-off at 8.45pm. For ticketing details visit www.ticketpro.com.my or call 03-7880 7999.
