Aviation sector shows greater operational efficiency


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s aviation industry has a fairly stable 2018 with airlines showing greater efficiency in operations but overall growth has been slowing down as the industry heads towards a matured phase.

Maybank Kim Eng analyst Mohsin Aziz said growth in passenger movement for this year was likely to be 2%, relatively lower than during the 17-year period in the country from 2000-2016, where growth was at almost 8% per annum on the back of cheap airfares and higher average flight per population.
