KLIA Kuala Lumpur Airport

This airport is to avoid for long transit. There are non stop announcements of everything going on in this airport preventing you from taking any kind of rest after a 12hr flight. The airport is below standards of BKK SIN HKG ICN etc and it is so far away from KUL.

Satellite terminal in transit. Compact design an excellent outdoor enclosure in the middle of the terminal. However not nearly enough free Internet access and much of what was there in the way of terminals was not working. Also uncomfortably warm. Would fly through again but not really up to the standard of SIN.

Impressed by its capacity. Night of my departure 12-13 wide bodies had departure within 45 mins not mentioning some local flights. The terminal area is huge and the aisles wide that you had the feeling of an empty airport. Airport public areas are clean so were the private rooms. Plenty of restaurants and many shops. No problems on immigration nevertheless on my arrival flight customs were slow but at least they smiled.

Fantastic choice of facilities to cater to all tastes and needs. Plenty of food beverage banks exchange. Having flown previously through the main KLIA terminal the immigration formalities on arrival at the LCC-T somewhat destroyed the experience. I spent over 1 hr in the queue but by the time my passport was stamped the queue had grown a further 100%. Only 50-60% of the desks were manned. It may be the low cost terminal but a passenger is a passenger and considering the throughput from the low cost carriers better facilities should exist to support a smoother arrival.

Very nice airport but problems with immigration while going in and out of country. Took 2 hrs to enter Malaysia with about 500 hundred people at immigration with 4-5 staff at counters. Most of the immigration positions were vacant.

When I entered KLIA for the first time I was extremely impressed. This airport is very clean beautifully decorated and user friendly. I just enjoyed the aero train experience the jingle in satellite concourse the shopping food courts and superb staff.

Airport is very clean and spacious with beautiful architecture. Staff were very polite and helpful but time was wasted at immigration followed by long queues and slow wifi. There was acceptable queuing time at check in customs and security Duty free prices are reasonable with a large variety of foods available.

I travelled to Kuala Lumpur in July 2011 and first of all KLIA is very clean and people friendly. I did not have a lot of the queuing issues at immigration and security checking The satellite terminal has a big area to bring the jungle into the airport and the small forest at satellite building is really beautiful. I also could see a lot of resting area and chairs for traveller and all facilities needed just around the corner compared to my previous travel via KLIA in Jan 2011. Finally I would say very stunning airport with excellent customer services.

KLIA is definitely the best airport in the world owing to its excellent architecture professional and caring staff clean and spacious and everything else. On par with Incheon CLK and Changi Asian airport rocks and everyone in their lifetime must see this architectural wonder and feel the warmth of its staff and experience the Asian hospitality. Malaysia is truly Asia starting with its gateway airport.

The airport is great! My mom and I traveled to Kuala Lumpur in March 2011 unfortunately my mom had a fractured heel and the airport staff were very attentive and helpful in accommodating my mother they also offered to re-bandage my mom's heel. They were friendly and always offered help which made my journey easier and less stressed. Plus the immigration runs smoothly and we made in through in no time. I could see a lot of resting area and chairs for traveler and all facilities needed just around the corner. Architectural wise I would say very stunning airport with excellent customer services.
