Strong rebound seen in international travel


Tourists in Langkawi

KUALA LUMPUR: The formation of the Langkawi quarantine-free travel bubble and the Malaysia-Singapore vaccinated travel lane (VTL) last month could lead to a strong rebound in international passenger movements in December.

In November, Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) posted a 630.2% year-on-year (y-o-y) growth in passenger movements in Malaysia to 2.3 million, supported by the uplift of the domestic travel ban effective Oct 11.
