About Kluang Airport

Kluang Airport (ICAO: WMAP), also known historically as Kluang Airfield and RMAF Kluang Air Base, is an aerodrome situated within the Kluang District, Johor, Malaysia. The facility is located in close proximity to the Kluang town centre, approximately 80 kilometres (50 mi) north of Johor Bahru, forming an integral part of the larger Kluang Garrison military installation. The facility possesses a single terminal, a grass airstrip, and concrete runways that have been converted for use as helipads. Located adjacent to Camp Mahkota, the aerodrome is officially operated and controlled by the Malaysian Army. Specifically, the air operations are managed by the 881st Army Aviation Regiment (Rejimen 881 PUTD) of the Malaysian Army Aviation (Pasukan Udara Tentera Darat or PUTD). The aerodrome is currently listed by the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) as public but restricted. This status is primarily due to the condition of the grass surface, which currently limits its use exclusively to helicopters.
