PETALING JAYA: Flights at the Subang Airport are subjected to a curfew and can only operate between 6am to 10pm, says Anthony Loke.

According to the Transport Minister, no midnight flights are allowed there.

“This takes into consideration that its (airport) surroundings are residential areas,” Loke told reporters at a press conference at the Subang Airport on Tuesday (July 30).

Loke also said six airlines will resume narrow-body aircraft operations on Aug 1.

According to Loke, the six are AirAsia, Firefly, SKS Airways, Transnusa, Batik Air Malaysia and Scoot.

Loke said the resumption of jet operations at Subang Airport comes after all jet operations were moved to KL International Airport (KLIA) in 1998.

“After 22 years, we feel there's a need to redevelop Subang Airport as a city airport and the passenger capacity in KLIA is also packed with over 25 million passengers annually,” said Loke.
