  • I prefer Subang airport, KLIA is too far. Please move more domestic flights to Subang.
  • @tzphua3980
    It is a great initiative, love it! Perhaps a lot of people don't really understand the rationale behind flying from Subang airport, the biggest selling-point of flying from Subang is that the airport is so much more closer to the KL city center and the other highly populated cities surrounding it (Subang, Puchong, Damansara etc.) than KLIA. For those who have a tight schedule and find it very inefficient to spend an additional 40 mins - 1 hour car drive to KLIA Terminal 1/2, they will surely appreciate this initiative. Such initiative is not only unique to Malaysia, it is found in other cities also such as in London, and normally the flight tickets will be slightly higher (considering that it offers improved time efficiency to busy passengers) than the ones at KLIA Terminal 1/2, which is pretty reasonable and worth it.
  • Yessss.... Bring healthy competition to firefly and other operator in Subang πŸ‘πŸ»

    subang airport is great - it's such a relaxed airport in a ideal location ; more akin to a bus terminal than a typical airport. The security are super chill and you can just rock up to your flight 30min before if you dont have any check in luggage
  • @SamsonOhsem
    Great Strategy. Subang Airport also needs to be upgraded soon.
  • @phillip244
    Tan Sri,you're okay with the banner behind re. the app MOVE. Being a perfectionist you should have torn it down.
  • @ngkeong3387
    Subang has so much potential compares to klia. Hope have more regional flights like subang to bangkok, subang to tokyo soon
  • @T-rex513
    Hello my North Bornean fellow, too soon to be happy with the news......we hope this airport can cater to the capacity, esp during keamatan, Gawai and Christmas holiday. Big chunk passengers are from East M'sia. It was the same airport but not the same capacity of passengers compared to 24 years ago.....not to mention, heavy traffic surrounding Subang area and also potential AA not using the sky bridge during non rainy day. So, do you prefer convenience over comfort?
  • @ritalee4964
    How about Singapore to Subang? It would be great!
  • @ngkeong3387
    It makes more sense to base more planes frm subang. Govt pay less subsidies for travelling petrol around klia.. too much hassles
  • @fh9226
    Subang is a single runaway airport. It has limited capacity.
  • @jaydennny
    Will it be confusing next time ? Causing ppl went to the wrong airport, nope ?
  • @paris5950
