KL International Airport is a destination in itself. It is unique because it has within its boundaries all that is needed for business, entertainment and relaxation. The airport is part and parcel of the Multimedia Super Corridor where placement of high technology industries are being actively pursued. KL International Airport is surrounded by four main cities of Kuala Lumpur, Shah Alam, Seremban and Malacca.

The airport is a catchment area and offers opportunities for a hive of business activities. Every effort has been made to create a homely airport with a serene environment combined with high technologies attractions. Nature and greenery are part of the airport in line with the "airport in the forest and forest in the airport" concept. The natural environment of the airport is transformed to functions and activities that continue to enhance nature. The abundant forest areas will be preserved and transformed into an environment park containing recreational facilities. For car racing enthusiasts a Formula One Race Track is located near the airport with the Formula 1 race scheduled in March every year. The track also caters for an array of other activities throughout the year including motor-cycle and rally racing. KL International Airport is close to Malaysia's Administration Capital; Putrajaya. Putrajaya, the country's new administrative centre is just 20 minutes from KLIA and will be a major boost for investment and trade.
