dean hizudy 0 Report post Posted March 20, 2012 Not related with MH but this is about several new airlines in KLIA in 1999 NEW AIRLINES OPERATING AT KLIA Friday 03/09/1999 KLIA has continued to show positive growth in passenger and aircraft traffic since it started operations in July 1998. Traffic has steadily increased at an average rate of 4% monthly to the present volume of 1,120,000 passengers/month in July 1999. This figure excludes the 160,000 domestic travellers who used LTSAAS monthly. Aircraft traffic has also increased from an average of 320 movements daily in November 1998 to the present 336 movements daily. Northwest Airlines started operations in KLIA in February 1999. It flies twice weekly from KLIA to Kansai en-route to various destinations in US. Transmile will start its cargo operations at KLIA beginning September 8, 1999.
