Seems like HRI is doing pretty well compared to before.
Hope GoSL looks to further develop HRI and probably come up with a concept similar to KLIA2 with reduced landing fees etc. to attract more airlines mainly LCC's that would definitely help to reduce congestion at CMB when things normalize
With the Sothern Expressway being a key link to HRI, many pax would definitely use HRI as an option primarily for cheap fares- Aaqib Hussain
