MAHB has confirmed that KLIA’s new aerotrain service will be up and running by the second quarter of 2025, sticking to its RM456 million budget. 

MAHB managing director Datuk Mohd Izani Ghani says the resumption will not be delayed beyond June. 

The project has faced several delays, with its original operational deadline set for Jan 31 this year.

The trains are undergoing rigorous testing to ensure safety, with approvals pending from authorities.

The project involves upgrading the entire aerotrain system, including power distribution, a new signaling system, and a high-tech control room with real-time monitoring capabilities. 

This is the first replacement of KLIA’s aerotrains since their launch in 1998.

Despite earlier delays and the termination of its initial contractor, MAHB reappointed Pestech in 2024, now working with IJM and Alstom to complete the project.

The aerotrain has been suspended since March 2023 following a major malfunction.
