Airlines not keen to operate at Melaka airport despite incentives, says exco


MELAKA: Seven airlines showed no interest in operating commercial flights at Melaka International Airport (LTAM) at Batu Berendam despite the state government offering them special incentives.

“There are no takers to our offers, but the state government is still harbouring hope that at least one of these airlines would respond before the end of this month as the deadline expires on Oct 30,” said the Melaka works, infrastructure, public amenities, and transport committee chairman said on Wednesday (Oct 25).
