The New Terminal 1 of Kota Kinabalu International Airport(KKIA)

on Sunday, 28 September 2008

My last time flying with Malaysia Airlines (MAS) was on December 2007 where the makeovers of the Terminal 1 are still under construction. Flying with Air Asia will disembark you at the Terminal 2, just like LCCT for Air Asia and KLIA for MAS.

Today, the new terminal building (cost about RM1.4 Billion) is already in use since its opening on 19 August 2008. It is to be said as one step closer to completion since the landscapes layout and the flyovers are still “situ sana sini” and yet, the airport's redevelopment actually also included the extension of the runway to 3,780m and a full-length taxiway scheduled to be completed next year.

Menghadap banjaran-banjaran...

Departure level- tetap dihantui konsep KLIA..


One elements indigenous to Sabah had been built into the interior of the terminal with the design of column heads inspired by the wakid or traditional baskets used by the Kadazandusun and Murut communities. Cuba cari mana tu wakid...
