Background ✨
AirBorneo was set to launch operations at the Bebuling Short Take-Off and Landing Airport upon its completion in November 2025, improving accessibility for Betong and surrounding areas1. Sarawak acquired MASwings from Malaysia Airlines Group, rebranding it as AirBorneo, with plans for domestic and international expansion, initially focusing on destinations within a four to five hours radius2. Additionally, Sarawak's government explored establishing an Aerospace Industrial Park to attract aerospace manufacturing investments3.
