KUALA LUMPUR: The domestic airport network saw 9.4 million passenger movements in the first month of Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026), says Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd
(MAHB).
In a statement, it said the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) and Penang International Airport recorded the highest year-on-year (y-o-y) growth within the network with KLIA leading at 5.9 million passenger movements, up by 8.2%, followed by Penang with 741,183 passengers, a 3.8% increase.
