Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL)

Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL)

Kuala Lumpur International Airport, abbreviated KLIA, at Sepang, 55 kilometres from the city, is the bigger and busier of the two airports that service the Malaysian capital. From KLIA to the Kuala Lumpur city centre you can take the high speed train KLIA Ekspres & KLIA Transit. Travelling time is 28 minutes for KLIA Ekspres and 35 minutes for KLIA Transit. There's also a plethora of buses connecting the airport to the city. To take a taxi from KLIA you will need to get a prepaid coupon. Coupons for airport taxis can be purchased from counters at Level 3 on the Main Terminal Building (Arrivals). Coupons for metered city taxis can be purchased from counters at Level 1 in the same building.

Public Transport

Public Transport

Since most people don’t live downtown, the most common way of getting around in Kuala Lumpur is driving. There may be light traffic jams during rush hours, but nothing serious. However, for the visitor, the public transport system is well-expanded and consists of an underground system, a monorail line, a series of different train lines and several bus operators.

Taxi

Taxi

If you are not familiar with the city and only staying for a short period, taxis can be the most convenient way of getting about. Taxis are easily available and not too expensive. Fares are charged according to the zone and are subject to change. An extra 50 percent is added for services between midnight and 6am. All taxis must use meters.
