After over a year of suspension, the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Aerotrain service is set to resume operations on 1st July, marking a crucial milestone in Malaysia’s preparations for Visit Malaysia Year 2026 (VM2026)

The announcement was made by Transport Minister Anthony Loke, who confirmed that the final phase of testing, including live simulations and safety drills, is currently underway. If all goes smoothly, the service will resume at 10am on 1st July, offering improved internal connectivity between KLIA’s main terminal and the satellite building.

“KLIA, of course, is our major gateway in Malaysia, and we are looking forward to the resumption of the aerotrain to make the entire process at KLIA even smoother. This year is important because we are the chair of Asean, and by 2026, it is a major year for Malaysia’s tourism because we are hosting Visit Malaysia Year so the resumption of the aerotrain is a very important part of that preparation.”

The aerotrain’s return has been lauded by industry leaders as a critical enhancement to Malaysia’s tourism infrastructure.

What to Expect from the New Aerotrain

The new aerotrain system features three coaches per train, with a capacity of 270 passengers per set, transit time under two minutes between terminals, two trains operating during peak hours and one train operating off-peak hours (12am-5am).

Until the system reaches optimal reliability, feeder buses will continue operating alongside the aerotrain. The entire project is being closely monitored by the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) to ensure safety standards are met. Malaysia Inbound Tourism Association (MITA) president Uzaidi Udanis emphasized that seamless airport connectivity plays a major role in shaping the first impression of the country.

He acknowledged that the prolonged suspension, since March 2023, following a major breakdown, had affected the overall travel experience for inbound passengers with shuttle buses causing confusion and delays.

Looking Ahead, Restoring Momentum for VM2026

The aerotrain  has been a key feature of KLIA since its opening in 1998, serving as a critical link within the airport’s internal transport system. Its resumption is expected to ease passenger flow, reduce operational delays, and enhance overall airport experience, all essential factors as Malaysia prepares to welcome millions of visitors in the lead up to Visit Malaysia 2026.
