Malaysia Airlines Flight Status
About Malaysia Airlines
Malaysia Airlines is an airline based in Malaysia, listed under the ICAO code MAS and the IATA code MH; air traffic control addresses its flights by the callsign "Malaysian". On this page you can follow Malaysia Airlines flights and find the airports it serves.
How to read a Malaysia Airlines flight number
Every Malaysia Airlines flight number starts with MH, followed by up to four digits: that is the number on your booking confirmation and boarding pass. In flight plans the same flight carries the ICAO prefix MAS, and controllers address it as "Malaysian". One thing to watch: codeshares. A ticket sold by another airline can be operated by Malaysia Airlines and vice versa; live tracking follows the operating carrier's number, so if your search comes up empty, check the "operated by" line on your booking.

Frequently asked questions about Malaysia Airlines
Where is my Malaysia Airlines flight right now?
Search the flight number (MH plus digits) in the search box on this page. If the aircraft is airborne within receiver coverage, you will see its live status; before departure you will see the route.
Is my Malaysia Airlines flight delayed or cancelled?
Check the flight number on this page for live status, but for rebooking, gate changes and cancellations the airline itself remains the authoritative source.
What do MH and MAS mean on Malaysia Airlines flights?
They are two prefixes for the same airline. MH is the IATA code you see on tickets; MAS is the ICAO code used in flight plans and by air traffic control.
Does Malaysia Airlines operate flights for other airlines?
Codeshare agreements mean a flight sold under another carrier's number may be operated by Malaysia Airlines, and the reverse. Live tracking always follows the operating carrier's flight number; check the "operated by" line on your booking.
