THE Aerotrain service at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 will resume full 24- hour operations from midnight on June 1, following the completion of a Comprehensive Action Plan (CAP), said Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook.

He said the plan, implemented since November 2025, was carried out in coordination with the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) and verified by independent railway assessors.

“The CAP covered three structured stages, namely inspection and rectification works, system testing and validation, as well as trial operations.

“Endurance testing was conducted over 24-hour and 48-hour periods under both passenger and non-passenger conditions,” he said as reported by Bernama.

Loke said the Aerotrain has recorded 100 per cent Operational Service Availability since January 2026.

He added that the daily engineering hours from 12 am to 5 am would continue to be maintained, during which a single train would remain in operation to serve passengers while routine inspection and maintenance works are carried out.

“The Ministry of Transport, through APAD, will continue to exercise regulatory oversight over the Aerotrain’s operations, while Malaysia Airports remains accountable for maintaining the service standards established under this plan,” he said. – May 31, 2026
