Airport pax statistics
It would appear difficult to maintain commercial services at DTV if pax figures at these levels are looked at in depth.
What you have is Jannuary daily average of some 114 pax each way on the KL AMS service who make up over 55% of the total pax traffic through the airport.
Now consider the necessary overheads to maintain services, then consider as to whether what if any concessions could be viable / sustainable.
On these figures it is difficult how they can even afford cleaners.
As for essential investment in the infrastructure / maintenance, then zero contribution from pax services, where is money to come from ?
Further evidence that the local population do not even make full use of those services that are available, haven't tansit through DTV for some time, but surely it now must not be a too pleasant experience........
