Malaysia Airports Holdings has launched its new airport hotel brand, Sama-Sama, marking its entry into airport accommodation sector.
The airport operator will own and operate the five-star full-service Sama-Sama KL International Airport hotel adjacent to Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) as well as the existing transit hotel – which will be rebranded as Sama-Sama Express KLIA. With the completion of KLIA2, Malaysia Airports will also operate its transit hotel, Sama-Sama Express KLIA2.
Said tourism minister, Ng Yen Yen, at the hotel launch yesterday: “It is heartening to note that Malaysia Airports is expanding on its repertoire of airport services to include hospitality with its Sama-Sama brand. It is always a proud moment to see a Malaysian brand grow from strength to strength and achieve success on the world stage.”
Malaysia Airports chairman, Wan Abdul Aziz Wan Abdullah, said: “Not content with just providing world-class, award-winning airport services, Malaysia Airports had the vision to offer every passenger who lands at KLIA a seamless travel experience – from the aircraft to the airport and to the hotel room. We will provide the connectivity, the convenience, the facilities and our unique Malaysian hospitality to welcome them. And so the Sama-Sama brand is born.”
Malaysia Airports aims to launch the Sama-Sama brand in other markets where it plans to operate airport hotels, according to Wan Abdul Aziz. Malaysia Airports manages and operates 39 airports in Malaysia, and also has operations in India and Turkey.
In the Malay language, sama-sama means “togetherness” and “you’re welcome”.
