Subang Airport extra capacity open to all carriers


PETALING JAYA: Any vacated capacities at the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport, or Subang Airport, will be made available to other airlines and Malaysia Air­ports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) is anticipating strong interest from international carriers.

MAHB said that as part of the Subang Airport Regeneration Plan, it is also committed to developing various non-terminal projects including maintenance, repair and overhaul facilities, business jet operations and other aerospace-related ventures.

“These projects will continue as planned and are not dependent on the continuation of scheduled jet operations at Subang.

“Any vacated capacities at the airport will be made available to other airlines, both international and local.

“We anticipate strong interest from international carriers, which may enhance the airport’s connectivity and its role as a preferred gateway for regional travel.

“This aligns with broader efforts to diversify and optimise the airport’s operations beyond domestic services,” MAHB said in a statement.

It added that its long-term strategic focus is to strengthen the Kuala Lumpur Inter­national Air­port as Malaysia’s primary aviation hub, with Subang Airport complementing its capacity.
