15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Kuala Lumpur to Tawau use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 108 km short after reserves on a 1,830 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Kuala Lumpur International Airport has 13,530 ft and Tawau Airport 8,800 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
