PETALING JAYA (August 1): AirAsia Group proposed development of a low-cost carrier terminal (LCCT) at Penang International Airport, a move that group chief executive officer Tan Sri Tony Fernandes estimates will bring in about eight million passengers per year, to Penang.
The Star quoted Tony, who said: "AirAsia had connected Penang to 23 countries via five international and five domestic routes.
