KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's air passenger traffic recorded a significant 12.2 per cent year-on-year increase to 8.0 million in May 2024, and a 0.8 per cent month-on-month rise compared to April 2024, according to the Malaysian Aviation Commission (MAVCOM).
In a statement, MAVCOM executive chairman Datuk Seri Saripuddin Kasim said the growth was primarily driven by increased international travel, with both ASEAN and non-ASEAN regions contributing despite a slight decrease in domestic traffic from the previous month.
