According to a December 2 Bursa Malaysia filing, the two parties will sign an agreement on the scope of the charters and other conditions within 60 days of issuing the letter of award.

The contract extension runs from January 1 to December 31, 2025, and the value of the services will be based on the actual flights flown and schedules completed in accordance with the agreed flight programme.
