Miri residents will soon have the option of flying to Subang Airport, Kuala Lumpur, when a new air service commences on December 1, 2026. Deputy Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Chiew Choon Man has announced the new route, which he believes will benefit those who travel for work, business, education, medical treatment and family matters.
Subang Airport's location near central Kuala Lumpur will make the journey more convenient, particularly in terms of accessibility and onward land transportation. Chiew, who represents the Miri constituency, welcomed the announcement, stating that the new route would enhance Miri's connectivity with Malaysia's main economic centers.
The minister met with Batik Air to discuss the possibility of introducing the route and expressed his support for the positive developments leading up to its implementation. Better air connectivity, according to Chiew, will benefit the business and tourism sectors and make traveling between Miri and the Klang Valley more convenient, further contributing to Miri's growth potential.
