KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 16 — Both aerotrains at KL International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1 experienced a temporary power trip, resulting in a service disruption at about 8.30pm yesterday, according to Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd.

In a statement here last night, it said passenger recovery procedures were immediately activated and the airport’s response team was deployed to assist those on board to the terminal.
