MAHB has projected passenger growth this year of 9.7 per cent or more than global estimates, following an 18.4 per cent increase to 79.5 million passengers last year.
There were more passenger arrivals at all its airports, in particular KLIA which had a 19 per cent increase to 47.5 million arrivals.
