THE Transport Ministry told the Dewan Rakyat that space has been allocated to install aerobridges at the new KLIA2 low-cost terminal if airlines demand for such facilities.
Deputy Minister Jelaing Mersat said Malaysian Airports Holding Bhd (MAHB) was still considering constructing the aerobridges.
“The decision is in the final stages and MAHB had also allocated space to build aerobridges if any airlines need the facilities,” he said when replying to a question from Teresa Kok (DAP – Seputeh).
Kok had asked the ministry to state whether it had approved the construction of aerobridges at KLIA2.
He added that the Government was concerned with the plight of the public especially considering views from the disabled community, the Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents and the board of Airlines Representatives on the need to build aerobridges.
The estimated cost to build 80 aerobridges was RM132mil.
