AirBorneo to replace ATR fleet with new aircraft


KUCHING: Sarawak's own airline, AirBorneo, will replace its existing ATR fleet with new aircraft when the current lease period ends, says state Transport Minister Datuk Seri Lee Kim Shin.

He said AirBorneo would take over MASwings Sdn Bhd's existing fleet following Sarawak's acquisition of the airline from Malaysia Aviation Group to ensure uninterrupted operations, especially for rural air services.
