KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd
(MAHB) is continuing to invest ahead of sustained passenger demand at Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport (ISG), reinforcing its long-term focus on capacity, efficiency and resilience across its airport network.
In a statement, MAHB said it recently inaugurated the first phase of ISG’s expansion following the completion of Terminal 1’s modernisation and optimisation works, highlighting its approach to planning and delivering infrastructure that supports growth over time.
The group emphasised its phased, demand-driven investment strategy, designed to strengthen airport performance while safeguarding passenger comfort and operational stability.
“The 70mil or about RM334mil expansion project, targeted for completion by the second quarter of next year, is being delivered through close collaboration between Sabiha Gökçen International Airport Authority, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport Investment Development and Operation Inc and MAHB.
“The project demonstrates how disciplined planning, phased delivery and operational expertise can be applied in high-growth environments, whether in Europe or within Malaysia’s own airport network,” it said.
MAHB managing director Datuk Mohd Izani Ghani said the Terminal 1 modernisation was driven by sustained passenger growth and the need to enhance capacity and passenger flow in a measured, structured manner. — Bernama
