The Malaysian Airports Holdings Berhad, MAHB, has made provisions to install aerobridges at the new low carrier terminal known as KLIA 2.

Deputy Transport Minister Jelaing Mersang told the Dewan Rakyat today that the proposal is still under consideration and will be approved once the airlines decides to use the facility.

He was replying to a question by Seputeh MP Teresa Kok who wanted to know if approvals had been given for the building of aerobridges at KLIA2 and for MAHB to raise the airport fees.

He added that MAHB would raise the airport fees once the aerobridges are installed and used.

MAHB has decided not to install aerobridges at KLIA2 after considering budget carrier AirAsia's decision not to use them, citing cost factors.

If the aerobridges are to be installed, MAHB would have to spend about 132 million ringgit.
