Finally the new LCCT plans was unveiled by Malaysia Airports Holding Bhd’s (MAHB) together with the new 4km runway  which is expected to be operational in the third quarter of 2011.

The total cost for this new LCCT is RM2 billion and designed to handle 45 million passengers a year and be connected to the main terminal via an extended Express Rail Link (ERL) and a new side road

The new LCCT, spread over 150,000 sq metres, would be larger than the main terminal with retail and food outlets to ensure passenger comfort. On top of that, there are plans for a 6,000-vehicle parking complex, parking bays for 70 planes and an integrated transport hub for buses and taxis.

10,000 sq metres of the space would go towards setting up AirAsia’s headquarters, which would be sited away from airport operation areas.

KLIA’s master plan took into account long-term use of infrastructure and land to handle up to 120 million passengers annually. Currently, only 30% of the entire complex and land are used.

The plan to build the new LCCT near the main terminal was part of the National Airport Master Plan for Malaysia to strategically develop all 24 airports in the country over 50 years.

The present LCCT would then be reverted into a cargo handling terminal.
