Cheap flights to Penang

Situated just off the West coast of Malysia, Pulua Penang is a small island that built up a presence as a major trading post under the British Empire. Today, the island is visited by tourists, rather than the once prevalent spice boats. Georgetown, the capital, is a vibrant and attractive multicultural city, though most visitors use the city as a base and spend their days on the beaches of the nearby resorts. One of the best times to book Penang flights is during the many festivals. The Dragonboat Race is especially popular in June and the Penang Bridge Run, which takes place in May, sees a half-marathon start on the Butterworth Bridge. There are few international direct flights to Penang. The easiest way to book Penang cheap flights is to arrive in Kuala Lumpur and connect from there.
