Anthony Loke: KLIA and KLIA2 to be rebranded to Terminals 1 and 2 PUTRAJAYA, Feb 9 — The Malaysian government has agreed in principle to rebrand the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) and Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 (KLIA2) to KLIA Terminal 1 and KLIA Terminal 2 respectively.

Fernandes: AirAsia has applied to operate flights from Subang Airport under the airport's regeneration plan “In big cities like Kuala Lumpur, you need to have more airports. I think it is a very bold, [a] brave and right decision for the domestic aviation industry in Malaysia. "I imagine it will be more expensive to fly from Subang Airport than the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), but I think it is the right decision,” Fernandes told reporters at the launch of AirAsia’s new AI-powered concierge that replaced its AirAsia Virtual Allstar, AVA, on Wednesday (Feb 8). AirAsia plans to target a new group of passengers for growth at the Subang Airport, and that routes would likely focus on regional destinations, Fernandes said.

How about using the parking space of the KTM to build the new terminal so that there is a more direct connection with the KTM station. And then use the old terminal as the waiting area for the passengers. Will be looking forward to their new plans for redevelopment.

The T1 old area seems to be crowded with developments. Unless they demolish some of the hangars to make way and concentrate all MRO related services around MAB hangars and redeveloped it. If I'm not mistaken, Malaysia Airlines is moving all its operations to KLIA and centralized their services there.

Maybe the cargo flight will be using the cargo apron at the Raya complex. Not sure about commercial flight unless they redesign the parking layout to accommodate B737/A320 like Ho Chi Minh airport with possibility demolishing the waiting area to make way for more parking. Though it might interrupt with the abundance of ATR72 operations. Is there a possibility that Firefly/Batik Air may replace their ATR72 operations with B737 operating from Subang ?
