KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia Airlines has advised passengers flying from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) between today and Nov 1 to allow extra travel time due to expected traffic congestion during the Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix (MotoGP).
In a Facebook post, the airline said heavy traffic and delays are expected in surrounding roads and along highways leading to KLIA during the event at the Sepang International Circuit (SIC).
Malaysia Airlines said airport access remains fully open, but passengers are encouraged to monitor real-time traffic updates from the Royal Malaysia Police, plan alternative routes where necessary and consider using the KLIA Ekspres train service.
"Passengers are advised to arrive at KLIA at least three hours before their scheduled international flight departures and two hours before domestic departures.
"We would also like to remind passengers that check-in counters for both domestic and international flights would close 60 minutes before the scheduled departure time,” it said.
Malaysia Airlines thanked passengers for their understanding and cooperation during this peak travel period.
The 2026 Malaysian MotoGP runs from today until Sunday, with SIC targeting 200,000 spectators over the three-day event. - BERNAMA
