'''Kuala Lumpur International Airport''' ('''KLIA''') {{airport codes|KUL|WMKK}} is the main [[international airport]] serving [[Kuala Lumpur]], the capital of [[Malaysia]]. It is located in the [[Sepang District]] of [[Selangor]], approximately {{convert|45|km|mi|abbr=on}} south of downtown Kuala Lumpur and serves the [[Greater Kuala Lumpur|city's greater conurbation]].
'''Kuala Lumpur International Airport''' (Malay: Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur) (Chinese: 吉隆坡国际机场) (Tamil:கோலாலம்பூர் அனைத்துலக விமானநிலையம்) (Japanese:クアラルンプール国際空港) (Arabic: [كولا لومبور] مطار دول)

{{airport codes|KUL|WMKK}} is [[Malaysia]]'s main international [[airport]] and is situated in [[Sepang]] district, in the south of the state of [[Selangor]], about [[1 E4 m|50]] [[kilometre|km]] from the capital city, [[Kuala Lumpur]]. Built at a cost of some USD 3.5 billion, KLIA was inaugurated on [[27 June]] [[1998]]. Its slogan was ''Bringing the World to Malaysia and Malaysia to the World''.
Kuala Lumpur International Airport is the largest and busiest airport in [[Malaysia]] and is recognised as a mega hub. In 2023, it handled 47.2 million passengers, 980,040 tonnes of cargo and 819,026 aircraft movements, ranking as the [[World's busiest airports by passenger traffic|35th-busiest airport by total passenger traffic]].

As of 2024, Kuala Lumpur International Airport has become the second most connected airport globally, according to the [[OAG (company)|OAG Megahub Index]], following [[Heathrow Airport|London-Heathrow]]. Other airports in the top five included [[Haneda Airport|Tokyo–Haneda]], [[Amsterdam Airport Schiphol|Amsterdam]] and [[Incheon International Airport|Seoul–Incheon]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://moodiedavittreport.com/oag-megahubs-2024-london-heathrow-remains-worlds-number-one-internationally-connected-airport/|title=KLIA/KLIA2|website=OAG Megahubs 2024: London Heathrow remains world’s number one internationally connected airport|date=11 October 2024|language=en|access-date=2024-10-11}}</ref>


Operated by Malaysia Airports (Sepang) Sdn Bhd, KLIA is the hub for [[Malaysia Airlines]] and [[AirAsia]].
The airport is operated by [[Malaysia Airports]] (MAHB) Sepang Sdn Bhd and is the major hub of [[Malaysia Airlines]], [[MASkargo]], [[Batik Air Malaysia]], [[UPS Airlines]] and [[World Cargo Airlines]], and the major operating base of [[AirAsia]] and [[AirAsia X]].


==History==
==History==
===Background===
The planning of KLIA began in 1990 when the government decided that the existing [[Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport|Subang International Airport]] (now Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport) would not suffice to handle future demand. Malaysia's Prime Minister [[Mahathir bin Mohamad]] was a prime driver behind the project, which was seen as an important component of the [[Multimedia Super Corridor]].
The groundbreaking ceremony for Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) took place on 1 June 1993<ref>{{cite web|url=https://diveintomalaysia.com/klia-klia2/|title=KLIA/KLIA2|website=Dive Into Malaysia|date=25 March 2019|language=en-US|access-date=2019-08-01}}</ref> when the government under [[Mahathir Mohamad]] decided that the existing Kuala Lumpur airport, then known as [[Subang International Airport]] (now [[Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport]]) could not handle future demand. The construction of the airport was done mainly by a few state owned construction companies as well as Ekovest Berhad – helmed by Tan Sri Datuk [[Lim Kang Hoo]]. It was created as part of the [[Multimedia Super Corridor]], a grand development plan for Malaysia. The chief architect who designed the new airport terminal was the Japanese architect [[Kisho Kurokawa]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.kisho.co.jp/page/223.html|title=Kisho Kurokawa}}</ref>


Upon KLIA's completion, Subang Airport's Terminal 1 building was demolished. [[Malaysia Airports]] agreed to redevelop the remaining Terminal 3 to create a specialist airport for turboprop and charter planes surrounded by a residential area and a business park.<ref>{{cite news |url= https://www.edgeprop.my/content/1302873/wct-buys-60-stake-subang-skypark |title =WCT buys 60% stake in Subang Skypark |year=2018|access-date=7 October 2022|work= The edge markets}}</ref> The [[IATA]] airport code '''KUL''' was transferred from Subang Airport, which currently handles only turboprop aircraft, general aviation and military aircraft.
The decision was highly controversial on multiple grounds. The location, over 70 km from Kuala Lumpur was viewed as inconvenient; the price tag, and its ballooning from original estimates, was steep; and critics alleged that, contrary to the government's assertions, Subang could still be expanded. Indeed, work on Subang continued simultaneously with KLIA's construction. Subang's new Terminal 3 was opened in December 1993 and Terminal 2 was refurbished in 1995, only three years before KLIA's opening.


===Current site===
The inauguration of the airport on [[June 27]], [[1998]] &mdash; one week before the new [[Hong Kong International Airport]] &mdash; was marked with significant problems. Aerobridge and bay allocation systems broke down, queues formed throughout the airport, and baggage handling broke down badly, with lost bags and waits of over five hours. [http://www.limkitsiang.com/archive/1998/July98/sg1120.htm] Most of these issues were sorted out eventually, but the baggage handling system continued to be plagued with problems and was finally put up for a new complete replacement tender in 2006.
The airport's site spans {{convert|100|km2|sqmi}} <sup>2</sup><ref name="KLIA History">{{cite web|title=History of KLIA |year=1998 |url=http://www.dcaklia.gov.my/EnglishPages/MENU/MainFrame.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080305010314/http://www.dcaklia.gov.my/EnglishPages/MENU/MainFrame.htm |archive-date= 5 March 2008 }}</ref> of former agricultural land and is one of the world's largest airport sites. An ambitious three-phase development plan anticipates KLIA to have three runways and two terminals each with two satellite terminals.<ref name="KLIA Phases"/> Phase One involved the construction of the main terminal and one satellite terminal, giving a capacity of 25 million passengers, and two full service runways. The Phase One airport had 60 contact piers, 20 remote parking bays with 80 aircraft parking positions, four maintenance hangars and fire stations. Phase Two, designed to increase capacity to 35 million passengers per year, is largely complete. Phase Three is anticipated to increase capacity to 100 million passengers per year.<ref name="KLIA Phases">{{cite web|title=Phases of KLIA |year=1998 |url=http://www.kiat.net/klia/phases.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150826070610/http://www.kiat.net/klia/phases.html |archive-date=26 August 2015 }}</ref>


===Grand opening===
The airport also had to contend with the [[East Asian financial crisis]] that had started in 1997, which decimated passenger traffic in Malaysia and the region. Passenger growth was initially negative and airlines that had started flights to KLIA, including [[All Nippon Airways]], [[British Airways]], [[Lufthansa]] and [[Northwest Airlines]], soon terminated their services due to unprofitability. The first phase of the airport was designed with a capacity of 25 million passengers per year, but 1999, the first full year of operations, saw only 13.2 million. <ref>"Passengers at Kuala Lumpur airport up despite fewer airlines", [http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0WDP/is_2001_August_6/ai_77496547]. Asian Economic News, August 6, 2001.</ref> However, traffic did eventually increase and 21.1 million passengers were recorded in 2003 &mdash; although this, too, fell short of the original estimate of 35 million by this year.
Kuala Lumpur International Airport was officially inaugurated by the tenth [[Yang di-Pertuan Agong]], [[Jaafar of Negeri Sembilan|Tuanku Ja'afar]] of [[Negeri Sembilan]], on 27 June 1998 at 20:30 [[Time in Malaysia|MST]]. The first domestic arrival was [[Malaysia Airlines]] flight MH1263 from [[Kuantan Airport|Kuantan]] at 07:10 MST. The first international arrival was Malaysia Airlines flight MH188 from [[Malé International Airport|Malé]] at 07:30 MST. The first domestic departure was Malaysia Airlines flight MH1432 to [[Langkawi International Airport|Langkawi]] at 07:20 MST; the first international departure was Malaysia Airlines flight MH84 to [[Beijing Capital International Airport|Beijing]] at 09:00 MST.<ref name="KLIA Inauguration">{{cite web|title=First Flights of Kuala Lumpur International Airport |publisher=Department of Civil Aviation KLIA Branch |year=1998 |url=http://www.dcaklia.gov.my/EnglishPages/History/history_opening.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071009211552/http://www.dcaklia.gov.my/EnglishPages/History/history_opening.htm |archive-date=9 October 2007 }}</ref>


===Inauguration===
The name ''Kuala Lumpur International Airport'' was previously used as an alternative name for the [[Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport]] (SZB) in [[Subang]].
The inauguration of the airport was marked with numerous problems. The aerobridge and bay allocation systems broke down, with queues building up throughout the airport and the baggage handling breaking down. Bags were lost, and there were waits of over five to seven hours.<ref name="LKS">{{cite web |title=KLIA's opening marked with problems |url=http://www.limkitsiang.com/archive/1998/July98/sg1120.htm |publisher=Lim Kit Siang Media Release |date=July 1998}}</ref> Most of these issues were remedied eventually, though the [[baggage handling system]] was plagued with problems until it was put up for a complete replacement tender in 2007.


The airport suffered greatly reduced traffic with the general reduction in economic activity brought about by the [[1997 Asian financial crisis]], [[September 11 attacks]], [[SARS]], [[H5N1|bird flu]] epidemic ([[Avian flu]]), the [[financial crisis of 2007–2008]], the [[2009 swine flu pandemic]] and the [[COVID-19 pandemic]]. The airport is also largely overshadowed by the more internationally renowned [[Changi Airport]] located approximately {{convert|300|km|mi}} to the southeast in [[Singapore]], especially in regards to connecting flights by various airlines or Malaysians especially living in the southern parts of the country (e.g. [[Johor]]) preferring to travel via Changi rather than at KLIA.
===Future plans===
Under Ninth Malaysia Plan, a new runway and a new satellite building will be constructed to accommodate the incresing number of passengers. However, this is still under planning stage. Futher more,there are plans to connect the Main Terminal Building to Low Cost Carrier Terminal with KLIA Express, or a new monorail line also connecting to the [[Sepang International Circuit|F1 circuit]].


The first year of opening immediately saw reduction of passenger numbers as some airlines, including [[All Nippon Airways]] (resumed on 1 September 2015), [[British Airways]] (reinstated on 28 May 2015 until 28 March 2021<ref>{{cite news |title=British Airways axes Kuala Lumpur, suspends Sydney and Bangkok till November|url=https://mainlymiles.com/2020/12/17/british-airways-axes-kuala-lumpur-suspends-sydney-and-bangkok-till-november/|publisher=Mainly miles|date=17 December 2020|access-date=22 October 2022}}</ref>), [[Lufthansa]] (resumed between 28 March 2004<ref>{{cite news |title=Lufthansa to resume flights to KL next March |url=https://www.travelweekly-asia.com/Travel-News/Lufthansa-to-resume-flights-to-KL-next-March |publisher=Travel Weekly Asia |date=18 December 2003 |access-date=13 February 2020}}</ref> until 28 February 2016)<ref>{{cite news|title=Lufthansa to discontinue Kuala Lumpur service from March 2016|publisher=vimanphotography|date=17 December 2015 |url=https://vimanphotography.com/2015/12/17/lufthansa-to-discontinue-kuala-lumpur-service-from-march-2016/|access-date=13 February 2020}}</ref> and [[Northwest Airlines]], terminated their loss-making services to KLIA. KLIA's first full year of operations in 1999, in its Phase One manifestation (capacity of 25 million passengers per year), saw only 13.2 million passengers.<ref name="KLIA Passengers Up">{{cite news |title=Passengers at Kuala Lumpur Airport up despite fewer airlines |url=http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0WDP/is_2001_August_6/ai_77496547 |url-status=dead |publisher=Asian Economic News |date=6 August 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151016162028/http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0WDP/is_2001_August_6/ai_77496547 |archive-date=16 October 2015}}</ref> Passenger numbers eventually increased to 21.1 million in 2004 and 47 million in 2013<ref name="2013 Statistics">{{cite web|url=http://www.panynj.gov/airports/pdf-traffic/ATR2013.pdf|title=Airport Traffic Report|year=1998|access-date=20 April 2014|archive-date=3 March 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303204422/http://www.panynj.gov/airports/pdf-traffic/ATR2013.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref> — though short of the originally estimated 25 million passengers per year by 2003.
*Phase 2 (2003-2008): To handle 35 million passengers per annum by 2008.
*Phase 3 (2008 and beyond): Further expansion of the airport to handle 45 million passengers per annum by 2012.


=== Rebranding ===
There is sufficient land and capacity to develop facilities to handle up to 100 million passengers a year, four runways by the year 2020 and two mega-terminals, each with two linked satellite buildings, which means a total of 2 mega terminals and 4 satellite buildings
On 9 February 2023, transport minister [[Anthony Loke Siew Fook]] announced that the government and MAHB had agreed to rebrand KLIA and klia2 to KLIA Terminal 1 and KLIA Terminal 2 respectively.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Tee |first=Kenneth |date=2023-02-09 |title=Anthony Loke: KLIA and KLIA2 to be rebranded to Terminals 1 and 2 |url=https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2023/02/09/anthony-loke-klia-and-klia2-to-be-rebranded-to-terminals-1-and-2/54096 |access-date=2023-03-29 |website=Malay Mail |language=en}}</ref> The costs associated with the rebranding will be fully borne by MAHB.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Loke: KLIA, KLIA2 rebranding costs do not involve govt allocation |url=https://www.thesundaily.my/local/loke-klia-klia2-rebranding-costs-do-not-involve-govt-allocation-CO10782550 |access-date=2023-03-29 |website=www.thesundaily.my |language=en-MY}}</ref>


==Runways==
Once all three phases are developed, the airport's vicinity will include hiking trails for jet-lagged travelers, golf courses, a theme park, a shopping center, hotels, and a wetlands nature preserve. [[Sepang International Circuit]], which hosts [[Formula 1]] and [[MotoGP]] races, is also nearby.
[[File:KLIA Layout.svg|thumb|Airport layout]]


Kuala Lumpur International Airport has three parallel runways ('''14L/32R; 14R/32L; 15/33'''<ref>For KLIA2, arrivals for can only use 32L while departures can only use 14R</ref>).
==Design==
KLIA was designed by Japanese architect [[Kisho Kurokawa]]. The airport was designed using the concept of ''Airport in the forest, forest in the airport'', in which it is surrounded by green space. This was done with the co-operation of the [[Forest Research Institute of Malaysia]]. An entire section of rainforest was transplanted, roots and all, from the jungle and put in the middle of the satellite building.


The current three runway system is capable of handling 78 landings per hour and was expected to increase to 108 landings per hour once upgrading of the Kuala Lumpur Flight Information Region had been completed in 2019.<ref>{{cite news |title=ADS-B at Kuala Lumpur To Boost Landings, FIR Restructuring |url=https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/air-transport/2017-04-05/ads-b-kuala-lumpur-boost-landings-fir-restructuring |work=Aviation International News |access-date=15 October 2017}}</ref> These runways operate on different departure/arrival modes according to the air traffic requirements.<ref>{{cite web |title=eAIP Malaysia |url=http://aip.dca.gov.my/aip/eAIP/2017-08-17/html/index-en-MS.html |url-status=dead |website=aip.dca.gov.my |access-date=15 October 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171015151026/http://aip.dca.gov.my/aip/eAIP/2017-08-17/html/index-en-MS.html |archive-date=15 October 2017 |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
The airport is designed to handle up to 100 million passengers per year. Despite its size, it is designed to disperse human traffic to all corners of the building, with a simple layout and effective signage that in Malay, English, Mandarin, Japanese and Arabic. Facilities for disabled passengers also meet world standards. Futhermore, it has Automated People Mover and Travellators to allow quick and easy movement in the airport.


==Infrastructure and facilities==
==Operations and infrastructure==
{{main|Operations and infrastructure of Kuala Lumpur International Airport}}
The runways and buildings cover an overall site of 100 square kilometres, and with its 75 ramp stands, it is theoretically capable of handling 100 aircraft movements at any given time. There are 216 check-in counters, arranged in six check-in aisles. The airport is the first in the world to use the [[Total Airport Management System]] (TAMS) &mdash; although the system was blamed for the airport's teething troubles by Transport Minister [[Ling Liong Sik]]. [http://www.limkitsiang.com/archive/1998/July98/sg1120.htm]

==Terminals==
ATC frequencies:
Kuala Lumpur International Airport comprises two main terminals: the original terminal, Terminal 1, previously known simply as "KLIA"; and the newer Terminal 2 (formerly KLIA2). Terminal 1 was designed by Japanese architect [[Kisho Kurokawa]], who also designed the Domestic Terminal (T2) at [[Nursultan Nazarbayev International Airport]], with an emphasis of natural lighting within the airport complex. Spanning 38.4m along a grid pattern allowing for future expansions, the abstract symbolic architecture by the late Kisho Kurokawa encompasses the Islamic geometry and cutting-edge technology with the tropical rainforest in mind.<ref>{{cite web |title=Kisho Kurokawa |url=http://www.kisho.co.jp/page/223.html}}</ref>

===Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCC Terminal)===
The first purpose built Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) was specifically built at KL International Airport to cater to the growing passengers of the Low Cost Airlines, especially the passengers of Malaysia's first "no-frills" airline, [[Air Asia]]. It is located beside the KLIA Main Terminal Building. Construction of the LCC Terminal was on a fast-track basis beginning June 2005 at an approximate cost of RM 108 million.


===Former Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT){{anchor|Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT)|LCCT}}===
The 35,290 square-meter terminal is designed and built to suit the Low Cost Carrier (LCC) business model that requires only basic terminal amenities. With this in mind, the terminal is designed to facilitate the movements of international and domestic passengers within a single-floor operation area. Thus, it does not require travellators, escalators or aerobridges to be provided at the terminal. The LCCT terminal connects with the Main Terminal Building with a green-coded NadiKLIA bus for RM1.20. A future transit rail connecting both buldings is under consideration.
The now defunct {{convert|36000|m2|sqft}} [[low cost carrier terminal]] (LCCT) was opened at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on 23 March 2006 to cater for the growing number of users of low-cost airlines, especially the passengers of Malaysia's "no-frills" airline [[AirAsia]]. The terminal was designed and built in accordance to the [[low cost carrier business model]], with limited terminal amenities. As requested by the low-cost airlines, the terminal did not provide [[aerobridge]]s, nor were there transfer facilities, rail connections, and the other facilities provided in a fully fledged terminal. LCCT was located within the Air Support Zone; it ceased operations on 9 May 2014, and all low-cost carrier flights subsequently operated out of KLIA T2.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.lcct.com.my/|title =Welcome to Malaysia's LCCT|year=|access-date=7 October 2022|work=lcct.com.my}}</ref>

===Future Expansion Plans===
==Ground transportation==
Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB) has announced plans to expand the Kuala Lumpur International Airport to accommodate the increasing number of air travelers. [[Minister of Transport (Malaysia)|Transport Minister]], [[Anthony Loke|Anthony Loke Siew Fook]] stated that the proposal includes increasing the capacity of KLIA Terminal 1 from 30 million passengers per annum (mppa) to 59 mppa and KLIA Terminal 2 from 45 mppa to 67 mppa. The expansion plan also considers constructing a fourth runway and a new Terminal 3 in the future.<ref name="New terminals, fourth runway being considered for KLIA expansion, Dewan Rakyat told">{{citation|date=12 December 2024|title=New terminals, fourth runway being considered for KLIA expansion, Dewan Rakyat told|url=https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2024/12/12/new-terminals-fourth-runway-being-considered-for-klia-expansion-dewan-rakyat-told|access-date=2024-12-23}}</ref>


In addition to the long-term plans, short-term measures have been introduced to improve the passenger experience, such as the installation of [[Airport check-in|self-check-in kiosks]] and the addition of 20 new [[immigration]] autogates. Furthermore, MAHB plans to build a Private Premium Terminal designed for passengers seeking premium services, offering expedited immigration and customs processes and accommodating up to 100 users at a time. This project is currently in the planning stage and is expected to begin in 2025.<ref name="New terminals, fourth runway being considered for KLIA expansion, Dewan Rakyat told"/>
Connections to [[Kuala Lumpur]] are possible via [[KLIA Express]] train (RM35 one way), taxis (approximately RM60), and by bus.


MAHB also aims to establish a [[Hajj]] and [[Umrah]] Terminal with a capacity of five mppa, specifically catering to [[Pilgrimage|Muslim pilgrims]] traveling to [[Saudi Arabia]]. This terminal would enable Saudi Arabia's immigration pre-clearance procedures to be conducted at KLIA, reducing waiting times at [[King Abdulaziz International Airport]] in [[Jeddah]]. However, this development is contingent on approval from the [[Politics of Saudi Arabia|Saudi Arabian government]].<ref name="New terminals, fourth runway being considered for KLIA expansion, Dewan Rakyat told"/>

With the slight modification of the masterplan, the future Terminal 2's satellite terminal will be combined into one satellite terminal. The expansion of Terminal 2's satellite terminal will be exactly the same as Terminal 1's (the current Main Terminal) satellite terminal, where initially the satellite terminal will have four arms, and another four arms when the terminal reached its capacity. There is sufficient land and capacity to develop facilities to handle up to 97.5 million passengers a year, four runways by 2020 and two mega-terminals, each linked with satellite terminals.<ref name="KLIA Phases"/>

Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) (IATA: KUL, ICAO: WMKK) is the main international airport serving Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. It is located in the Sepang District of Selangor, approximately 45 km (28 mi) south of downtown Kuala Lumpur and serves the city's greater conurbation.

Kuala Lumpur International Airport is the largest and busiest airport in Malaysia and is recognised as a mega hub. In 2023, it handled 47.2 million passengers, 980,040 tonnes of cargo and 819,026 aircraft movements, ranking as the 35th-busiest airport by total passenger traffic.

As of 2024, Kuala Lumpur International Airport has become the second most connected airport globally, according to the OAG Megahub Index, following London-Heathrow. Other airports in the top five included Tokyo–Haneda, Amsterdam and Seoul–Incheon.[2]

The airport is operated by Malaysia Airports (MAHB) Sepang Sdn Bhd and is the major hub of Malaysia Airlines, MASkargo, Batik Air Malaysia, UPS Airlines and World Cargo Airlines, and the major operating base of AirAsia and AirAsia X.

History

[edit]

Background

[edit]

The groundbreaking ceremony for Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) took place on 1 June 1993[3] when the government under Mahathir Mohamad decided that the existing Kuala Lumpur airport, then known as Subang International Airport (now Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport) could not handle future demand. The construction of the airport was done mainly by a few state owned construction companies as well as Ekovest Berhad – helmed by Tan Sri Datuk Lim Kang Hoo. It was created as part of the Multimedia Super Corridor, a grand development plan for Malaysia. The chief architect who designed the new airport terminal was the Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa.[4]

Upon KLIA's completion, Subang Airport's Terminal 1 building was demolished. Malaysia Airports agreed to redevelop the remaining Terminal 3 to create a specialist airport for turboprop and charter planes surrounded by a residential area and a business park.[5] The IATA airport code KUL was transferred from Subang Airport, which currently handles only turboprop aircraft, general aviation and military aircraft.

Current site

[edit]

The airport's site spans 100 square kilometres (39 sq mi) 2[6] of former agricultural land and is one of the world's largest airport sites. An ambitious three-phase development plan anticipates KLIA to have three runways and two terminals each with two satellite terminals.[7] Phase One involved the construction of the main terminal and one satellite terminal, giving a capacity of 25 million passengers, and two full service runways. The Phase One airport had 60 contact piers, 20 remote parking bays with 80 aircraft parking positions, four maintenance hangars and fire stations. Phase Two, designed to increase capacity to 35 million passengers per year, is largely complete. Phase Three is anticipated to increase capacity to 100 million passengers per year.[7]

Grand opening

[edit]

Kuala Lumpur International Airport was officially inaugurated by the tenth Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Ja'afar of Negeri Sembilan, on 27 June 1998 at 20:30 MST. The first domestic arrival was Malaysia Airlines flight MH1263 from Kuantan at 07:10 MST. The first international arrival was Malaysia Airlines flight MH188 from Malé at 07:30 MST. The first domestic departure was Malaysia Airlines flight MH1432 to Langkawi at 07:20 MST; the first international departure was Malaysia Airlines flight MH84 to Beijing at 09:00 MST.[8]

Inauguration

[edit]

The inauguration of the airport was marked with numerous problems. The aerobridge and bay allocation systems broke down, with queues building up throughout the airport and the baggage handling breaking down. Bags were lost, and there were waits of over five to seven hours.[9] Most of these issues were remedied eventually, though the baggage handling system was plagued with problems until it was put up for a complete replacement tender in 2007.

The airport suffered greatly reduced traffic with the general reduction in economic activity brought about by the 1997 Asian financial crisis, September 11 attacks, SARS, bird flu epidemic (Avian flu), the financial crisis of 2007–2008, the 2009 swine flu pandemic and the COVID-19 pandemic. The airport is also largely overshadowed by the more internationally renowned Changi Airport located approximately 300 kilometres (190 mi) to the southeast in Singapore, especially in regards to connecting flights by various airlines or Malaysians especially living in the southern parts of the country (e.g. Johor) preferring to travel via Changi rather than at KLIA.

The first year of opening immediately saw reduction of passenger numbers as some airlines, including All Nippon Airways (resumed on 1 September 2015), British Airways (reinstated on 28 May 2015 until 28 March 2021[10]), Lufthansa (resumed between 28 March 2004[11] until 28 February 2016)[12] and Northwest Airlines, terminated their loss-making services to KLIA. KLIA's first full year of operations in 1999, in its Phase One manifestation (capacity of 25 million passengers per year), saw only 13.2 million passengers.[13] Passenger numbers eventually increased to 21.1 million in 2004 and 47 million in 2013[14] — though short of the originally estimated 25 million passengers per year by 2003.

Rebranding

[edit]

On 9 February 2023, transport minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook announced that the government and MAHB had agreed to rebrand KLIA and klia2 to KLIA Terminal 1 and KLIA Terminal 2 respectively.[15] The costs associated with the rebranding will be fully borne by MAHB.[16]

Runways

[edit]
Airport layout

Kuala Lumpur International Airport has three parallel runways (14L/32R; 14R/32L; 15/33[17]).

The current three runway system is capable of handling 78 landings per hour and was expected to increase to 108 landings per hour once upgrading of the Kuala Lumpur Flight Information Region had been completed in 2019.[18] These runways operate on different departure/arrival modes according to the air traffic requirements.[19]

Operations and infrastructure

[edit]
Main article: Operations and infrastructure of Kuala Lumpur International Airport

Kuala Lumpur International Airport features a number of modern design features that assist in the efficient operation of the airport. It is one of the first Asia Pacific airports to become 100% Bar Coded Boarding Pass capable.[20] Malaysia Airlines;[21] AirAsia;[22] MASkargo, a cargo airline;[23] and Malaysia Airports, the Malaysian Airports operator and manager; are headquartered on the property of KLIA.[24] Malaysia Airlines also operates its Flight Management Building at KLIA.[25]

Terminals

[edit]

Kuala Lumpur International Airport comprises two main terminals: the original terminal, Terminal 1, previously known simply as "KLIA"; and the newer Terminal 2 (formerly KLIA2). Terminal 1 was designed by Japanese architect Kisho Kurokawa, who also designed the Domestic Terminal (T2) at Nursultan Nazarbayev International Airport, with an emphasis of natural lighting within the airport complex. Spanning 38.4m along a grid pattern allowing for future expansions, the abstract symbolic architecture by the late Kisho Kurokawa encompasses the Islamic geometry and cutting-edge technology with the tropical rainforest in mind.[26]

Main Terminal Building

[edit]

The KLIA Main Terminal Building (MTB) now also referred to as KLIA Main is located in between the two runways. The floor area of the terminal covers 390,000 m2 (4,200,000 sq ft) and the building consists of 39 square roof units, which enables future expansion of the building. There are a total of 216 check-in counters, located in 6 different islands, identified by the letters A – M (excluding I). Multi check-in services are available, designed for the use of all passengers arriving, departing or in transit. Self check in facilities are available in this airport since 2007,[27][28] and KLM was the first airline to use the Common-use self-service kiosks. The contact pier is an extension of the main terminal building with gates marked with prefix A and B for domestic departures, G and H for international flights. The gate allocation is based on operational requirements, although it has been observed that Malaysia Airlines has been operating most of its operations out from the contact pier.

Satellite Terminal A

[edit]

The 176,000 square metres (1,890,000 sq ft) satellite building accommodates international flights departing and arriving at KLIA T1. Passengers taking flights parked at the satellite terminal are transported by bus from the main terminal; as of March 2023, the Aerotrain that connects this building with the main terminal has been suspended for repairs and rolling stock replacement.

There is a wide array of duty-free shops and prestige brand boutiques in the satellite building. This includes international brands such as Burberry, Harrods, Montblanc, Salvatore Ferragamo, and Hermes. Among all international labels available within the terminal, some boutiques such as Harrods are only available in the airport. A number of restaurants and international airlines' lounges are available as well as an Airside Transit Hotel.

Interior of the Satellite Terminal

Within the terminal, wireless internet (Wi-Fi) is provided free of charge. The terminal also has prayer rooms, showers and massage service. Various lounge areas are provided, some including children's play areas and movie lounge, broadcasting movie and sport channels.[29] The terminal also features a natural rainforest in the middle of the terminal, exhibiting the Malaysian rainforests.

Under Malaysia Airports Berhad retail optimisation plan, the retail space in satellite terminal A will be further optimised to increase its revenue derived from commercial space rental and a percentage of sale receipts to 50% by year 2010 which currently stands at 35%. Some notable improvements that will be seen after the refurbishments will be the Jungle Boardwalk[30] which will be the first of its kind in the world and larger mezzanine floor to accommodate F&B outlets and viewing galleries.[31]

The gates in Satellite Terminal A have the prefix C. The Satellite A terminal has 27 boarding gates altogether.[32]

KL City Air Terminal

[edit]

KL City Air Terminal, sometimes known as Kuala Lumpur City Air Terminal or KL CAT, located at KL Sentral, is a virtual extension of KL International Airport where city check-in services are provided. KL City Air Terminal is recognised by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and carries the IATA designation XKL. Currently there are only three airlines providing city check-in services: Cathay Pacific, Malaysia Airlines and Batik Air Malaysia.[33]

KLIA Terminal 2 (formerly known as KLIA2)

[edit]
Bird's eye view of Terminal 2

Built at a cost of approximately RM4 billion, it is the largest purpose-built terminal optimised for low-cost carriers, like AirAsia in response to the exponential growth of low-cost travel in the region. It was built to replace the previous Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT). KLIA T2 began its operations on 2 May 2014, and all flight operations at LCCT were moved to KLIA T2 by 9 May 2014.[34][35]

Aircraft at Terminal 2

As part of its development, a third runway (Runway 15/33) and a new air traffic control tower (Tower West) were built to support its operation. KLIA T2 has an initial capacity of 45 million passengers per year. The terminal has a built-up area of 257,845 sqm with 68 departure gates, 10 remote stands, 80 aerobridges, includes a retail space of 32,000 sqm to accommodate a total of 220 retail outlets.[36] The main terminal building of KLIA T2 is connected with its satellite piers with a skybridge, making it the first airport in Asia with such facility.[37] KLIA T2 is certified with Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED).

Terminal 2 main lobby with self check-in kiosks

Check-in counters are divided into 8 rows located in 4 islands, each row identified by the letters S – Z. Boarding gates are located in 5 piers, indicated by the letters J and K for domestic flights, and L, P and Q for international flights. Piers J, K and L are connected directly to the main terminal building, while Piers P and Q are accessible via the skybridge. Piers K and L are physically the same pier and share the same gates, but with waiting lounges on different levels (Level 1A for K and Level 2 for L). For international flights, the access door from Pier K is sealed off, while for domestic flights, the access door from Pier L is sealed off instead.[38][39]

At present, inter-terminal connection is provided on the landside at Gateway@klia2 complex and there are provisions for future airside inter-terminal connection.[40]

Gateway@klia2

[edit]

Gateway@klia2 is an integrated shopping complex that is connected to the main KLIA T2 terminal building. It has a 350,000 square feet of net lettable space spanning over four levels. The transport hub at Gateway@klia2 links klia2 to the KLIA Ekspres and KLIA Transit service, with allotted pick-up and drop-off areas for coaches, taxis, rented vehicles and private transportation.[41]

Gateway@klia2 hosts an 8-storey car park that directly adjoins KLIA T2. There are 6,000 covered parking lots at Blocks A and B and another 5,500 lots at car park D (KLIA2 parking rate[42]). Shuttle buses are available to take the public from the car park D to the terminal.[43] The first capsule transit hotel in Asia, the Capsule by Container Hotel, is also located at Gateway@klia2. Gateway@klia2 is managed by WCT Holdings Berhad.[44]

Former Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT)

[edit]

The now defunct 36,000 square metres (390,000 sq ft) low cost carrier terminal (LCCT) was opened at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on 23 March 2006 to cater for the growing number of users of low-cost airlines, especially the passengers of Malaysia's "no-frills" airline AirAsia. The terminal was designed and built in accordance to the low cost carrier business model, with limited terminal amenities. As requested by the low-cost airlines, the terminal did not provide aerobridges, nor were there transfer facilities, rail connections, and the other facilities provided in a fully fledged terminal. LCCT was located within the Air Support Zone; it ceased operations on 9 May 2014, and all low-cost carrier flights subsequently operated out of KLIA T2.[45]

Future Expansion Plans

[edit]

Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB) has announced plans to expand the Kuala Lumpur International Airport to accommodate the increasing number of air travelers. Transport Minister, Anthony Loke Siew Fook stated that the proposal includes increasing the capacity of KLIA Terminal 1 from 30 million passengers per annum (mppa) to 59 mppa and KLIA Terminal 2 from 45 mppa to 67 mppa. The expansion plan also considers constructing a fourth runway and a new Terminal 3 in the future.[46]

In addition to the long-term plans, short-term measures have been introduced to improve the passenger experience, such as the installation of self-check-in kiosks and the addition of 20 new immigration autogates. Furthermore, MAHB plans to build a Private Premium Terminal designed for passengers seeking premium services, offering expedited immigration and customs processes and accommodating up to 100 users at a time. This project is currently in the planning stage and is expected to begin in 2025.[46]

MAHB also aims to establish a Hajj and Umrah Terminal with a capacity of five mppa, specifically catering to Muslim pilgrims traveling to Saudi Arabia. This terminal would enable Saudi Arabia's immigration pre-clearance procedures to be conducted at KLIA, reducing waiting times at King Abdulaziz International Airport in Jeddah. However, this development is contingent on approval from the Saudi Arabian government.[46]

Ground transportation

[edit]

Inter-terminal transportation

[edit]
Aerotrain station in Satellite Building

The Aerotrain, currently out of service for repairs, is an automated people mover (APM) that connects the airside of KLIA Main Terminal Building (MTB) and the Satellite Building. Each 250-person capacity train can transport 3,000 passengers per hour in each direction at up to 56 km/h (35 mph). These three-car driverless trains run on elevated rail and under the taxiways. The journey takes under two minutes. The Aerotrain operates between three and five-minute intervals between terminal. Automatic train controls manage the operation of the entire Aerotrain system, controlling the speeds, headways, stops and door openings in stations, and integrating functions that enhance the reliability and performance of the system.[189]

No airside connection currently exists between the Main Terminal Building and Terminal 2; connecting passengers must clear Malaysian immigration and customs checks before taking a landside transportation option (Express Rail Link, bus or taxi).

External connections

There are also buses to parts of other Klang Valley cities like Shah Alam (Section 17 terminal), Klang (AEON Bukit Tinggi) as well as Putra Heights LRT station. Popular providers are Aerobus, Airport Coach and Jetbus.

Intercity services are available to Penang, Ipoh, Yong Peng (central Johor), Johor Bahru, Malacca and Sitiawan (Perak). Local buses are also available to Nilai and Banting, with SmartSelangor free shuttle available to Banting, Tanjung Sepat and Salak Tinggi.

Car

[edit]

Kuala Lumpur International Airport is mainly served by tolless KLIA Expressway (Federal Route 26) which is an 11 kilometre direct road from KLIA Interchange of ELITE Expressway (E6) to both KLIA and KLIA2. The expressway also has connection to:

  • KLIA Outer Ring Road (Federal 27) to KLIA mosque and Sepang International Circuit
  • Labohan Dagang–Nilai Road (Federal 32) to Banting, Nilai and Salak Tinggi

The further end of the expressway leads to tolled ELITE Expressway, which connects it to the PLUS expressway networks (E1 North-South Expressway-North, E1 New Klang Valley Expressway and E2 North-South Expressway-South) which links to most of Klang Valley's major townships and further to Peninsular Malaysia's west coast states, to the extent of the border with Thailand and Singapore.

Expansion and developments

[edit]

Plans

[edit]
KLIA Aeropolis Masterplan

With the slight modification of the masterplan, the future Terminal 2's satellite terminal will be combined into one satellite terminal. The expansion of Terminal 2's satellite terminal will be exactly the same as Terminal 1's (the current Main Terminal) satellite terminal, where initially the satellite terminal will have four arms, and another four arms when the terminal reached its capacity. There is sufficient land and capacity to develop facilities to handle up to 97.5 million passengers a year, four runways by 2020 and two mega-terminals, each linked with satellite terminals.[7]

On 12 December 2024, Transport Minister, Anthony Loke Siew Fook announced that plans to expand KLIA are in the pipeline to cater for the increasing flight passengers. The proposal includes increasing the capacity of T1 from 30 million passengers per annum to 59 million and T2 from 45 million to 67 million. A fourth runway and a new terminal, T3 are also in consideration.[190]

Summary of Kuala Lumpur International Airport Masterplan
Phase Year Description
Phase 1 1998 Initial capacity of 25 million passengers per annum
2006 Capable of handling 35 million passengers per annum with the construction of Low Cost Carrier Terminal
Phase 2 2008 Expansion of Low Cost Carrier Terminal to accommodate 40 million passengers per annum
Phase 3 2011 New Low Cost Carrier Terminal will be constructed to accommodate additional 30 million (55 million) passengers per annum, Current Low Cost Carrier Terminal converted to cargo usage.
Not fixed Satellite Terminal B will be constructed to handle a maximum of 75 million passengers. (One terminal accompanied by 2 satellite terminal and one low-cost carrier terminal.)
Phase 4 Not fixed Terminal 2 and Satellite Terminal C will be constructed so that the airport can handle 97.5 million passengers.

A380 upgrades

[edit]

The operator of Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Malaysia Airports Holding Berhad, had spent about RM135 million (approx) to upgrade facilities at the KL International Airport (KLIA) in Sepang to accommodate the Airbus A380. KLIA is the only airport in Malaysia that accommodate the landing and take off of the A380. Upgrading works started on 3 April 2006, and was completed by 28 May 2007. Works include the provision of shoulders on both sides of the two existing runways of 15 meters as well as the taxiways, building additional aerobridges at the three departure halls, namely C17, C27 and C37, and enhancing the mezzanine lounges for upper deck passengers of the aircraft at the departure halls. Emirates is the only current operator of the Airbus A380 to Kuala Lumpur; its services commenced on 1 January 2012.[191] Malaysia Airlines started its A380 services from Kuala Lumpur to London on 1 July 2012 before retiring the aircraft type at the end of 2018.[192]

Award and recognition

[edit]
KLIA Aeropolis Masterplan

On 22 November 2024, KLIA was awarded Large Airport of the Year 2024 by Centre for Aviation (CAPA) for its exceptional connectivity performance in view of the strong regional competition, commitment to the development of major infrastructure and flexibility in servicing both full-fledged and low-cost airlines.[193]

KLIA's Terminal 2 is voted 2024 best terminal for low-cost airlines in Southeast Asia and 7th overall in the world by Skytrax.[194]
