#traveldiaries Opening hours: 6am to 10pm Address: After immigrations and security checks, turn escalator up at nearby Gate A3 Having lounge access is important to us for our family trip. This Plaza Premium lounge at Penang International airport at near Gate A3 suits our travels. They have plenty of seating area and food selection is ok for a short stay. Their toilets are a bit small but then there is a bigger toilet for passenger use just below the lounge. This lounge does not offer showers but they have live station cooking noodles. So it is still not bad considering we can use the free lounge passes.

#Overseas travel Nooodles Address: Penang International Airport Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Bayan Lepas, 11900 Bayan Lepas, Penang, Malaysia Atmosphere/Facilities: As soon as I got off the plane, I looked for a local food restaurant. I found a restaurant near the exit, so I went in. They also had nasi lemak and laksa, but I ordered Penang curry noodles. There was a short wait. The staff was very kind. Recommended points: They have a wide variety of noodle dishes. The restaurant was quiet and clean. Penang curry noodles are a little spicy. The curry and coconut soup was very delicious.

It was my very visit to a Domestic lounge. Overall, I'm quite pleased with the premium feel. Place is nice and clean. Aircond is at full blast, so it can get really cold inside, but not a major problem. Variety of food selection is limited, see the photos. 📍Aero Bar Address - Plaza Premium International Lounge. Near Gate A3, Mezzanine Floor, International Departure, Lapangan Terbang Antarabangsa Bayan Lepas, 11900 Bayan Lepas, Pulau Pinang #penangairport

Penang International Airport Domestic Departure Ambiance/Facilities - The airport isn’t very big. They also don’t have a wide variety of options of restaurant or cafes. Basically they only have Starbucks where you can dine in. There is a small shop and two more semi cafe and shops to get some snacks and drinks. They have a small internet lounge as well as a small resting lounge. It seems like the have a VIP lounge as well but I didn’t explore that. For this small airport it can get quite busy and noisy. If you planning to do work I would suggest sitting at Starbucks Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #celebratewithtrip #penang #malaysia #airport #lianvyver

Departure from Penang International Airport to Kuala Lumpur by Malaysia Airlines (MAS), MH1155, Gate B3~

#AirlineReview Thai Air Asia flight FD323 departed from Don Mueang International Airport, Bangkok to Penang International Airport, Malaysia. The flight took only 1 hour and 45 minutes. The flight departed on time and arrived in Penang on time as well. This flight used an Airbus A320 Neo passenger plane, a relatively new plane, registration HS-CBD, one of the most modern fleets of Thai Air Asia. Prosperous service is fast after takeoff. The service is for those who pre-ordered meals. Then, food is sold to those who want to eat and drink, including souvenirs. It is a very convenient way to visit Penang. No need to transfer by car or boat. It takes only a little over an hour to reach the destination. #wattosann
