Ascend Airways

Ascend Airways Malaysia is an airline based in Malaysia. It provides passenger and cargo capacity to other airlines and travel companies through ACMI and air charter services. The company is part of the Avia Solutions Group.

Its customers include airlines, tour operators, charter brokers, government departments and NGOs. The company says it plans to move aircraft capacity between Malaysia and a sister carrier in the UK as the seasons change. This lets it keep its aircraft and crew busy through the whole year.

The services page lists wet lease, which covers the aircraft with flight and cabin crew, and damp lease, which covers the aircraft with flight crew. It also offers CMI, where the company manages and operates an aircraft for a client who keeps ownership. Charter flights are the second main service, and the aircraft and cabins can carry a client's branding.

The company is regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia. News on the site says it obtained a full air operator certificate and an Air Service Permit in October 2025. It says it aims to cut emissions by 18 percent and noise by 50 percent with a modern fleet.

Avia Solutions Group is described on the site as the world's largest ACMI provider. The group has 107 aircraft across six continents, more than 11,000 staff and 17 business lines, including ACMI, MRO and ground handling. The site has a careers page and says there are no open roles at present.
