Ikhlas Com Travel & Umrah Sdn Bhd (ikhlas.com) unveils a bold new chapter in how journeys are imagined and experienced. At an exclusive relaunch event curated exclusively for travel journalists, editors, content creators and storytellers, ikhlas.com Travel offers a first glimpse into its thoughtfully redesigned approach to travel — one that resonates deeply with the needs of modern Muslim travellers.
Built on the values of affordability, inclusivity and comfort, ikhlas.com Travel offers curated travel packages, seamless booking mechanics and comprehensive Muslim-friendly itineraries that go beyond the typical tourist trail. From halal-certified and Muslim-friendly accommodations and local cuisines to prayer-friendly stops and culturally immersive experiences, the platform is poised to reshape how Muslims explore the world.
Chief Executive Officer of ikhlas.com, Ikhlas Kamarudin said: “Travel today is about more than just destinations — it’s about how we connect, reflect and return as better Muslims. At ikhlas.com, our travel services offer unforgettable experiences with the best value for comfort, convenience and peace of mind as Muslims.
“What makes us different is the depth of detail behind every journey. Each package is designed, personally experienced and refined by travel experts who have been to the destination multiple times. Our guides speak the local language, know where to go and include unique highlights — from viral cafés and thrift markets to curated halal cuisine and activities — often missing in typical itineraries.”
Every group trip is intentionally small, designed for comfort and personalisation, with special care given to elderly travellers and families with young children. Prayer obligations are prioritised between activities with proper prayer facilities and all meals are either halal-certified, Muslim-friendly or vegetarian, verified in advance by the ikhlas.com Travel experts.
Ikhlas adds: “Booking is entirely digital — no office visits required. Travellers can consult via chat or call, customise their itinerary, submit documents digitally and pay in flexible tranches via online transfer or using AirAsia Reward points. We are happy to announce that a new interactive “Travel Guide” feature will soon be launched within the ikhlas.com app, featuring local info, halal dining tips, weather updates, currency exchange rates and curated articles for each city.”
Ahead of each departure, travellers receive a full digital pre-trip briefing including packing checklists, halal-friendly points of interest (POI), prayer guides, itinerary overviews and optional city navigation tips for free-and-easy days. In-depth blog content also offers destination highlights, halal cuisine reviews and price breakdowns for optional activities for travellers to explore the city on their own.
“While we aim to serve the digital-savvy traveller, ikhlas.com Travel is always ready to serve those who prefer offline arrangements. Rest assured we will be with you every step of the way, from pre-departure (airport assistance, pre-checked in flights and hotels) to all your travel handling essentials.”
To celebrate the relaunch of ikhlas.com Travel, ikhlas.com is lowering the prices of its super affordable packages with special promotions including the Buy 1, Free 1 for private trips within South East Asia or RM1,000 off for couple bookings to non-SEA destinations. Travellers can also enjoy a RM2,000 discount for 4 pax on any group packages including to Japan, South Korea and Kazakhstan!
Launched at the height of the pandemic in October 2020, ikhlas.com is a Muslim-friendly lifestyle and travel platform designed to make it easier for Muslims to fulfill their religious obligations. In addition to ikhlas.com Umrah and Muslim-friendly Travel offerings in collaboration with subsidiary airline, AirAsia, ikhlas.com also makes it easier for Muslims to perform Zakat, Sadaqah, Aqiqah, Fidyah, Qurban and more.
