You didn't get the point yet......KLIA was the Size of Changi Airport...even bigger than Changi....Changi Airport can handle 42M passenger a year and they still thinking the airport still big enough for them .... Malaysia KLIA only handle until 37M already want to make another new airport KLIA 2. When the KLIA 2 was finished ...it will make even more airliner go over there......this will make KLIA even less passenger.....so huge terminal inside all empty....like a Ghost Terminal.
This will very pathetic.......KLIA 2 "budget airport" will so many passenger so crowded while KLIA first class airport inside so empty.......Where got a country in this world thier LCCT airport handle passenger more than their 1st class airport.....
Changi airport floor area is 1,048,220 squared metre compared to KLIA's 514,694 squared metre
Changi airport is actually more underutilized than klia. current handling capacity is 57 million passengers per year. Last year's traffic. is only 42 millions passengers.
they are openning Terminal Four, increasing capacity to 73 million passengers per year.
I think it is good to build for the future. KLIA2 is gonna be where any future expansions shall take place. KLIA shall remain to cater for full-service airlines and cargo.
I dun see y we shud be unhappy about being a low cost airlines hub. It is good bizness.
