2nd KL Trip Part 1 - Tiger Airways to KL!~

YesH! Finally the long awaited 2nd trip to KL, Malaysia! :) :) :) This time round, we decided to take flight down instead of taking the coach there.

We booked our tickets from Tiger Airways because of their anniversary promotion. Return tickets including airport tax and services costs me SGD50. As compared to the coach services, this is definitely cheaper and you'll be able to reach your destination faster. :) :) :) And I haven't took any plane for a long time and missed the feeling of flying high up in the sky!~ ^_^~~~

I have no idea is the world getting smaller or just that the pilot took a shortcut. I reached KL in around 30 minutes from take-off which is (I mean) super fast. I remember the last time I went Japan and transit in KL, the trip took me around 45 minutes. The plane just leveled for 10 minutes and you will be able to hear the pilot's announcement "Cabin crew prepare for landing" and the air stewardess will hurry and push the trolley back.

Anyway, the flight is from Singapore Changi Airport Budget Terminal to KL International Airport (KLIA) Budget Terminal (LCC). Both Budget Terminals have duty-free shops once you passed the custom and you'll be able to shop for awhile while waiting for your flight. However, the shops are limited as compared to Singapore's T1, T2 and T3.

The bad thing about taking air transport to KL is that you've to travel all the way down to the airport (to and fr0) and this is quite troublesome if you're having a big baggage. You also have to include the transportation cost from the airport to the hotel when you reached KL.The cost of taking taxi from the LCC to our hotel is RM61.60 (that's around SGD25.45) and the whole journey takes around 1.5 hours (The airport is super far from the city!>.<"!) When you're going back to the airport, the taxi you take is different thus, the rate is also different. It will cost you RM70 if you're going to the KLIA, but RM75 if you're going to the LCC (Budget Terminal is further away). The difference in the rates is because the taxi you took from the city is not allowed to take any passengers from the airport back to the city. Passengers are only allowed to take cabs that are under the company registered with the airport.

So overall, the return trip (air tickets + cab fares) cost me around SGD78 which is still considered a bit cheaper than the coach services.

I just love the feeling of looking at the clouds and feeling the turbulence! :) :) :)

Hope you have enjoyed your 1st flight! *LOL!*
