Train-Train-Plane-Train (A dedication to our AE train fans)
26 February 2012 - 10:48 AM
So last week I went for the Singapore Airshow (which was awesome), and since my journey involved 3 train trips, this is a perfect trip to share seeing how many train fans there are here.
Here's the journey:
KLIA Express (Airport express from downtown Kuala Lumpur to the Kuala Lumpur Intl Airport)
KLIA Aerotrain (the shuttle train which links two terminals of KLIA)
Malaysia Airlines MH607 KUL-SIN A 30 minute B737 hop from KUL to SIN
Singapore MRT train The Singapore subway ride to my relative's house from Singapore Airport
_________________________________________________________________________________
PART 1: The fastest way to KLIA
KLIA is a good 70km from Kuala Lumpur so driving takes about an hour, versus 28 mins by the KLIA express.
The main train station, KL Sentral which is the busiest interchange for buses and subways, and it's also the place where the KLIA express stops.
The journey there
(Jln = Road, Pusat Bandaraya = City Centre)
There's a nice feature where one can check-in for his/her flight right here. The checked baggage will be loaded onto the train, albeit in the cargo hold. Though only Malaysia Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Emirates and Royal Brunei decided to offer this service. All other airlines handle their check-in at the airport only.
The Emirates check-in (There's an EK flight leaving at the same time as my flight)
Malaysia Airlines check-in
The subway line which runs right through the building
Boarding pass in hand, it's time to head down to the platform, where the train was already waiting. If you miss this one, not to worry - there's one every 15 mins.
