Mahb Records 2 Million Passengers In April
MAHB says passenger movement grew 1,366.2% over the same month last year when the first full lockdown was imposed.KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd (MAHB) recorded a total of two million passengers across its network in April, a growth of 1,366.2% over the same month last year when the first full lockdown was imposed.
The airport operator said in a filing with Bursa Malaysia today that international and domestic passenger movements were at 548,000 and 1.4 million, respectively.
“This was achieved despite continued interstate and international border closures in Malaysia, as well as interstate city suspensions and temporary border closures to passengers from nine countries in Turkey,” it said. MAHB operates the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport in Istanbul, Turkey.
Overall aircraft movements grew by 252.5% with international and domestic aircraft movements increasing by 222.6% and 267.1%, respectively, over April 2020.
For a 12-month period, the total MAHB network of airports saw a 79.3% decline to 25.2 million passengers.
On the local front, airports in Malaysia registered 630,000 passenger movements in April 2021, up 365.5% year-on-year (y-o-y), while the international and domestic sector recorded 107,000 and 523,000 passengers y-o-y, respectively.
Overall aircraft movements increased by 114.9%, with international and domestic aircraft movements increasing by 67.2% and 138.1% y-o-y, respectively.
Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) recorded 224,000 passenger movements y-o-y in April.
Overall aircraft movements at KLIA increased by 125.6% y-o-y, with international and domestic aircraft movements increasing by 87.9% and 295.4%, respectively, for the same period.
As for Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen International Airport, total passenger movements stood at 1.4 million in April with international and domestic sectors registering 441,000 and 913,000 passengers, respectively.
MAHB said attempts by both Malaysia and Turkey to introduce additional and renewed measures to curb the rise in Covid-19 cases and the threat of new variants might lead to a temporary deceleration in passenger recovery.
The vaccine roll-out planned for the year in Malaysia and Turkey, nevertheless, would mitigate the impact and pave the way for a gradual recovery, it added. - FMT
