Won the operation of the KLIA-East terminal at Labu pose a safety risk, as its location is dangerously close to the KLIA Main Terminal and the LCCT in Sepang?
No, it won’t. The two closest runways at KLIA Main terminal and Labu will have a parallel distance of 7.3km, which is well above the required international standard requirement of less than 2km. There are other examples of similar airport operations: Dallas Fort Worth International & Dallas Love Field The distance between the runways at Dallas Fort Worth International (7th busiest airport in the world) and Dallas Love Field (home of LCC pioneer Southwest Airlines) are within 5.44km of each other.
