The campaign features a lower entry threshold, a larger prize pool and new partner rewards tailored to diverse traveller preferences.

MAHB reaps efficiency gains at airports post-privatisation

MAHB manages 39 airports in Malaysia, and the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Turkey. PETALING JAYA : The privatisation of Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB), which included the entry of strategic foreign partners, has sparked a tangible improvement in the operation of the nation's airports. Managing director Izani Ghani said the airport operator has pivoted towards becoming more agile, responsive and customer-focused, shedding its old ways in favour of speed and service excellence. 'I told my team we cannot run an airport at the pace we used to before. This is a customer-facing business. Our customers expect quick responses and smooth experiences,' he said in his first media briefing today on MAHB's strategic direction following the privatisation. Izani Ghani. Izani said the positive trajectory is being driven by strategic upgrades and service transformations across its network, particularly at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). MAHB has completed 14 facility upgrades in the first half of the year at KLIA's Terminal 1, improving passenger clearance lanes and check-in zones. These efforts, costing some RM30 million, have increased security screening throughput by 40%. Its initiatives to enhance customer experience by reducing bottlenecks have seen a reduction in minimum connecting time from 90 minutes to 60 minutes at Terminal 2. 'These are the low-hanging fruits, done with support from our experienced partners, including Global Infrastructure Partners (GIP). They helped us fine-tune operations, such as shortening clearance times and optimising passenger flows,' he said. MAHB is also optimistic of achieving its target of 62 million passenger movements by year-end, an achievement that would mark a return to pre-pandemic levels. Izani said MAHB is exploring the feasibility of enabling seamless passenger transfers between KLIA Terminals 1 and 2. Proof-of-concept trials are underway, including evaluating shuttle routes and baggage transfer processes. On regional aspirations, he said MAHB is focused on the regional travel segment rather than competing with larger hubs like Singapore's Changi or Thailand's Suvarnabhumi airports. 'We do not need to fight head-on. We focus on our niche. Many regional carriers are already operating out of Malaysia,' he said. GIP's pivotal role MAHB was taken private in February by a consortium led by Khazanah Nasional Bhd for RM12.3 billion, or RM11 per share. The national sovereign wealth fund and the Employees Provident Fund now hold 40% and 30%, respectively, while the remaining 30% is owned by the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and GIP. Izani also acknowledged that GIP will play a key role in MAHB's transformation initiatives moving forward. He confirmed that Bryan Thompson, who took up the newly created role of chief airports officer in May, and three others – Adam Wilson, Ben Nolan and Richard Townsend – are GIP representatives. Thompson previously served as the CEO of Abu Dhabi Airports, executive director at Neom Bay Airport in Saudi Arabia, as well as an operating partner for GIP. The other three individuals, who are working under Thompson, also have extensive experience in airport operations in the UK and the Middle East. Wilson's previous roles include COO at Edinburgh Airport, and senior roles at London Heathrow Airport, while Nolan held senior finance positions at Gatwick Airport. In explaining the privatisation deal previously, Khazanah and EPF said GIP brings a demonstrable track record of leading airport transformations, as it has done at its other airport investments such as Sydney Airport, Gatwick Airport, and Edinburgh Airport. Apart from the 39 airports in Malaysia, MAHB manages the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey.

MAHB: KLIA, Penang Airport add five new routes, strengthen Malaysia's aviation hub status

KUALA LUMPUR, July 24 — KL International Airport (KLIA) and Penang International Airport (PEN) strengthened Malaysia's position as a global aviation hub with the addition of five new international air services in June 2025. Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) said in a statement that two of the new services were introduced by new airline partners, enhancing cross-border connectivity and regional access. Cambodia Airways (KR) launched a twice-weekly service between Phnom Penh and PEN, while Juneyao Air (HO) began operating four weekly flights from Shanghai to KLIA, boosting travel options for passengers from China and the wider East Asia region. In addition, MAHB said three new routes were introduced by existing airline partners, reflecting continued confidence in Malaysia's aviation market. 'Batik Air Malaysia commenced a twice-weekly service between KLIA and Dili, Timor-Leste; AirAsia Cambodia introduced a thrice-weekly route connecting KLIA to Sihanoukville; and AirAsia began operating four weekly flights between KLIA and Darwin, Australia,' MAHB said. In June, MAHB including its asset in Turkiye, Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (ISG) handled a total of 12.7 million passenger movements. 'Of this, local airports in Malaysia contributed 68 per cent or 8.5 million passenger movements, comprising 4.2 million international and 4.3 million domestic travellers. ISG recorded 4.1 million total passenger movements, comprising 2.2 million international and 1.9 million domestic in June,' MAHB said. Meanwhile, on the local front, MAHB said Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport (SZB) posted notable month-on-month growth in June, with passenger movements rising 9 per cent from 138,000 in May to 151,000. The airport operator noted that international traffic at SZB grew by over 10 per cent to 40,000 passengers, while domestic movements climbed nearly 9 per cent to 111,000. MAHB attributed this upward trend to strong average load factors of over 70 per cent on key regional routes operated by Firefly Airlines to Seletar, Scoot to Changi, and TransNusa Airlines to Jakarta. While the increased domestic travel was also spurred by the harvest festival in Sabah and Sarawak, as well as Hari Raya Haji celebrations coinciding with school holidays. — Bernama
