Why is there a need for KLIA2 when KLIA itself is so underutilize. Why not merge LCCT and KLIA into 1 terminal? It really doesn't make any sense to have another airport JUST for low cost carriers (AA).

QUOTE(Kampung2005 @ May 31 2012, 10:24 PM) KLIA2 was built as a compromise towards AirAsia initial plan of building "KLIA East" at Labu. Sorry don't understand. Can you shed some light on this? Where is Labu? What is KLIA East?

QUOTE(Kampung2005 @ May 31 2012, 10:28 PM) AirAsia wanted to build "KLIA East" in Labu, so that AirAsia can have their own terminal (or even an airport)  KLIA East is 8.6 km away from KLIA. Then, government negotiated the issue and came out with a compromise. MAHB build a new LCCT near KLIA with AirAsia's input. Labu is in N9. Oooh, so this is a political/business play la. Still don't understand why AA cannot just use KLIA lor. Not like KLIA very busy until cannot handle AA flights like that. KLIA2 no airport tax for AA meh if the main problem is AA dowan to pay the taxes for KLIA? Then what's going to happen to LCCT after KLIA2 is open? Feel like so much wastage. Although it really really showcase our Malaysian way of doing things. "Build new instead of optimizing."
