Malaysia🇲🇾Kuala Lumpur International Airport✨Shopping🛍️Mall Because the transit was long, I couldn't check in yet and couldn't use the lounge in the airport, but I used the lounge in the shopping🛍️ mall right in front of the airport entrance✌︎ Inside the mall, there are popcorn🍿 shops, restaurants, and various other shops✨ #Travelingwithme #Malaysia #KualaLumpurAirport #ShoppingMall 📍Location: 64000 Sepang, Selangor, Malaysia

Drove to Kuala Lumpur International Airport to pick up a friend, and came out of the parking lot with clear road signs. Take the elevator to the second floor of the airport to reach the arrival lobby. The airport has only one arrival hall exit, so it is very convenient to meet friends, find hotel reception staff or drivers. #International Airport #Arrival #Parking

It is approximately 60km from Kuala Lumpur International Airport to downtown Kuala Lumpur. If you have time, you can take the cheaper shuttle bus directly to the city. The bus stop is well signposted. The bus station is on the first floor of the parking lot. It operates 24 hours a day. Tickets are RM15 one-way and the journey takes about 60 minutes. #Airport bus #Affordable #Urban area

A part of the budget airline Air Asia and so obviously offer cheap accommodation. Tune hotels that offer a tiny room, a comfortable bed, high-powered shower and pretty much nothing else. No towels, no toiletries, and no breakfast. You can get all these things, you just need pay extra. With a couple of reservations, I do recommend it. I was greeted by friendly staff. Located right next to KLIA airport and a great place for cheap nights sleep between flights. #kliaairport #tunehotel

#2023travelwish One of a nice and comfort airport in South East Asia. Well managed and maintained. Very efficient security and immigration. Clean. Bright, good ambience. Clear signs everywhere, comfortable seating in waiting areas. Lots of shops and restaurants to go through while waiting to get on board. My #2023travelwish to travel to Antarctica comes true ! #kuala_lumpur #couplestrip

#2023travelwish Originated from Taiwan, this restaurant is well known of their “Xiao Long Bao”. A must not missed dish to order at this restaurant.

#2023travelwish From far you can get a great smell of coffee aroma arise. This is definitely smell from Gloria Jean’s in KLIA. You may find this store at Level 5 of KLIA, departure hall. Satisfied your craving for coffee and not forgetting to grab donuts, sandwiches, muffins and cakes for a quick bite. If you are not fancy of coffee, you may choose to have sparkling juice, or mineral water. A store not to miss in KLIA.

KLIA is the largest and busiest airport in Malaysia, located in Sepang District of Selangor, approximately 45 km south of Kuala Lumpur. KLIA transit takes approximately 35 minutes to reach Kuala Lumpur. The check in area is fast, there are a number of restaurants, cafes and shops. After the passport control, you will see the duty free shops, and some luxury brands. If you want to go to the Plaza lounge, you have to take the aerotrain to Gate C, and proceed to level 2, the lounge is just above C11.

We had 3 hours layover so we have our 2nd round breakfast while waiting for next flight. It's good to be able to dine in a place that sells some good old Malaysian comfort food before leaving the country. Service was fast. Food was good but the Kaya and Butter Toast little which is totally different from the picture in menu. Location wise it is great as it has a excellent view. #girlstrip #tripblazers #kl

Waiting for a connecting flight can be stressful sometimes. But if you have a great place to kill the time, everything will be perfectly a great experience to enjoy the holiday. Flying with business class is definitely one way to get access to this airlines lounge, but if you know the tricks, non business passenger will also granted access by knowing the tips and tricks. One of them is becoming their loyal membership by signing I'm their airlines frequent flyer program, secondly there is always a credit card benefits to get access with airlines lounge. Or even you can purchase the voucher by redeeming certain points or paying cash directly. Here at Regional business class lounge in KLIA for example features a great choice of food, wine and unlimited drinks. It is also equipped with complete business centre facilties, shower room, and relaxing area for the comfort of passengers.

Yes, another pit stop before I reach Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort. At this rate of stopping, I might reach the resort during dinner time. It is hard to resist when you come across so many freshly made food stalls. This stall sells traditional dim sum and they make their dim sum everyday. You have to try their buns which are so soft and tasty. I just have to overbuy them and save it for later. It is also my good fortune to have a stronger currency exchange rate and I can afford all the nice things when I am in KL. #klinsider #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

Never skip a food stall when the signboard says home made or hand made. It will taste good on most occasions. This is also a recommended food stall by the locals and I stop over here for a quick bite before continuing towards Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort. The portion is a little bit small so you can order an extra bowl to try out different noodles. In KL, when you are outside the city, it is easier to drive so that you can stop along the way to try out any delicious food. If you cannot drive, you can also hire a driver. If not, you can research on any public buses if there are any. #klinsider #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

On my way to Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort, I landed at KLIA and drove my way towards the resort. I took a pit stop at this local coffee shop and there was this long queue for wanton noodles by the name KL Fatty (translated from the signboard). For KL wanton noodles, it is similar to our local style too. It comes with “char siew” which is bbq pork and is best eaten dry with sauce. There are also many food stalls in the coffee shop and free seating. It was crowded during lunch time and parking was free. Try it out on your next road trip. It will be fun. Also, renting a car in Malaysia is not expensive. #klinsider #liveyourdreams #takethattrip

Costa Coffee is located right at the first row of shoplots of the Departure Hall, next to the domestic departure. We had an early breakfast here. Nothing better to start of the morning with nice cup of delicious expresso coffee and croissant and pastry. Superb service by barista' s full of smiles greeting you. It’s worth to try their coffee. They sell other beverages and pastries as well! #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot

Din Tai Fung offers traditional Taiwanese and Shanghainese cuisine and is known for its Xiao Long Bao (dumplings). Xiao Long Bao, the iconic mouth-watering soup dumpling filled with meat and piping hot soup is making its waves to the world! In Malaysia, there are halal and non-halal branches of Din Tai Fung. The halal restaurants are located in Nu Sentral Mall and Suria KLCC. Other branches included The Gardens Mall, Pavilion KL, 1 Utama Shopping Centre, Sunway Pyramid, Empire Shopping Gallery, Penang Gurney Plaza, SkyAvenue and Johor Bahru City Square. Everything that we ordered was done well ~ food were tasty and nicely presented. Wait staff was excellent and attentive. We like to have xiao long bao at Din Tai Fung and they are always consistent in the quality. Overall good dining.

4FINGERS is a Singaporean multinational chain of fast casual restaurants that specialises in crispy Asian style fried chicken. We had a quick snacking at 4FINGERS IN KLIA and it was average good. We ordered 6pcs Wingettes & Drummettes and fried calamari. The wingettes and drummettes and calamari can be ordered with either of their two sauces. But you can try both at once! #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot

It is the nearest place (to KLIA) for overnight sleep and good rest. Best place with excellent service at front counter and concierge. It’s walking distance from within airport. There is a free buggy service also to and from airport. Rooms are clean, bed and pillows are super comfy. They have nice gym, pool and tennis court, salon, spa, ballrooms, business rooms. The service has convinced all the time during my stay. We have early long-haul flight so we stay a night here for a good rest. This is 2nd time I stay in this hotel and I highly recommended this hotel. Hope to stay again in this hotel in the near future.

beautiful scenery must go place. As anyone who has ever been to an airport knows, they can be pretty hectic places. With all the people rushing around and the announcements being made over the loudspeaker, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Add in the fact that you're probably already tired from your flight, and it's no wonder that airports can be so stressful. But there's also something undeniably magical about airports. They're places where people from all over the world come together, and where you can depart for new and exciting destinations. So the next time you're at an airport, take a moment to appreciate the beauty of what it represents.

#cherryblossom25 My experience before departing from KLIA domestic hall, I got the chance to enjoy the shopping spree here selling various items from make-ups, perfumes, skincare, chocolate, souvenirs and gifts for fitness and family. Good thing is some of the items are duty free and cheaper than usual prices. I bought my usual skincare here before my flight from KL to Miri. It was an awesome shopping spot before fly. 

Stepping into KLIA during Hari Raya feels like entering a modern kampung oasis. Colorful blooms line the entrance, complementing the subtle festive décor — a reminder of tradition meeting global travel.
