Thoughts: MYAirline (Z9) is a low cost carrier airline operating domestic routes. MYAirline was born out of a discussion that took place in late 2020 between an airline industry veteran, 張慶福 Rayner Teo Kheng Hock and a Malaysian entrepreneur, 拿督吳煥華 Datuk Goh Hwan Hua. It is 88%-owned by Zillion Wealth Bhd, Trillion Cove Holdings Bhd (10%) and Mr Teo (2%), who is also MYAirline CEO. Flights out of KLIA2 were in operations only slightly 2 months ago since January 2023. The new Airline is headquartered in Subang Jaya, Selangor and primarily operates from KLIA2.
It is probably (with the current 50% promotion price) the cheapest budget domestics flight in the country as the 1-way KL-Penang flight was rm$69. As with any budget airlines, the flight costs does not include luggage check-in and if need so; a 15kg baggage check-in will costs rm$45 (almost the price of the flight ticket). 
At the moment, customers will have to queue to for the boarding pass and luggage check-in with only 3 counter available, while Air Asia have really a lot more counters (as KLIA2 was primarily build initial for Air Asia anyways). Boarding Pass & Bag Tag Printers for the new airline also wasn't ready at the moment. 
Since the hot seat today was only rm$69, surely the standard seats were cheaper! Purchased food is available by the MYAIRLINE's MYKopitiam which offers 4 meals of rm$15 each: 椰漿飯 Nasi Lemak, 漁網煎餅 Roti Jala, 炒麵 Mee Goreng, and 韓式炸醬麵 Korean JyaJangMyeon; along with Noodle Cups and beverages. 
There are now at least 7 Airlines in the country:
MAS (MA flights) established in 1972
AirAsia (AK flights) established in 1996
Firefly (FY flights) established in 2007
MASwings (MY flights) established in 2007 (routes within the Malaysian Borneo)
Malindo/Batik Air Malaysia (OD flights) established in 2013
MYAirline (Z9 flights) established in 2022
SKS Airways (KI flights) established in 2022 (Subang to Pulau Redang and Tioman) 
Malaysia approves two new airlines in aftermath of pandemic in 2022. And besides MYAirline Sdn Bhd (MYAirline) being the newly-established ultra low-cost carrier (ULCC), Johor-based SKS Airways Sdn Bhd had also been granted an ASL (Aircraft, Support & Leasing) said to focus on domestic short-range flights to island-based and coastal resorts from major cities within Peninsular Malaysia. Meanwhile, After almost a decade in operation, Malindo Air has been rebranded as Batik Air!
