[2025 Bayan Lepas Airports] Travel Guide for Penang International Airport (Updated May)

I had a chance to visit the Plaza Premium Lounge at Penang International Airport for breakfast, and overall, it was a decent experience. The lounge itself has a cozy atmosphere with comfortable seating. For breakfast, the buffet spread was fairly simple. There were staples like scrambled eggs, toast, and pastries, along with a few local options such as nasi lemak and fried noodles. I grabbed a plate of nasi lemak, which was decent, though the sambal could have had a bit more kick. The pastries were fresh, and the coffee was surprisingly good smooth and not too bitter. One downside was that some food trays emptied quickly, and refills took a while. If you arrive at a busy time, you might have to wait for certain dishes. The staff were polite but seemed a bit overwhelmed with the number of guests. Overall, it’s a convenient place to grab a light breakfast before a flight, but don’t expect an extensive spread. If you prefer a larger variety, you might be better off grabbing food elsewhere in the airport.

#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

Penang, Malaysia is a destination that truly captivates the senses, and nowhere is this more evident than in the charming village of Kampung Agong. Nestled among lush green paddy fields, this tranquil village offers a glimpse into traditional rural life in Malaysia. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, with the paddy fields stretching out as far as the eye can see. It is the perfect place to take a leisurely stroll, breathing in the fresh air and taking in the natural beauty. One of the highlights of my visit to Kampung Agong was the opportunity to capture some truly stunning photographs. The village is home to a number of unique art installations that make for great backdrops in photos. The colorful murals and sculptures are truly one-of-a-kind, and I couldn't resist taking a few snaps to remember my visit. Another highlight of my visit was the opportunity to try#2023travelwish#newyearadventure#tripblazers#awesomepic#couplestrip#deliciousfood#mytripvlog#penang#malaysia some of the freshest coconut water I've ever had. The local vendors were more than happy to hack open a fresh coconut for me and I could taste the natural sweetness of the coconut. It was a refreshing treat on a hot day and it was a perfect way to cool down. Overall, my visit to Kampung Agong was an experience I will never forget. The combination of stunning scenery, unique art installations, and delicious local treats made for an unforgettable trip. I highly recommend a visit to this charming village for anyone looking for a truly authentic and enriching travel experience.

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

A tour of Penang Airport's VIP lounge: Access the Plaza Premium International Lounge with a DragonPass card after meeting the credit card spending requirement. Located on the 4th floor, left-hand side after security in the departure area, near Gate A3. Penang Airport is relatively small and easy to navigate. The lounge is fairly standard, but its standout feature is the freshly made noodle station. The curry laksa is quite tasty, and you can choose from rice noodles, flat noodles, or yellow noodles. Pair it with a cup of Milo for a perfect combo. The noodles are cooked to order, served quickly, and are deliciously hot. The lounge space features a standard blue-green color scheme with a modern-classical design. The environment is comfortable, quiet, and not crowded.
