    0:05 - Flights are booked under a single PNR and you have no plans to leave the airport
    ------------
    you can transfer & board your connecting flight airside and do not need to go through immigration and Customs. Therefore visa is not required. Your luggage will be seamlessly transferred to the next flight without the need for you to retrieve it.
    After arriving for your transit, navigate through the terminal, check the flight information monitors to the boarding gate for your connecting flight. Go through security checkpoint before entering the boarding gate. Remove and place your belt, cap, jacket, watch, and electronic devices in the bins provided.
    Usually, all boarding passes are issued during initial check-in. However, if you require a boarding pass for your connecting flight, you can obtain it at the transfer counter situated in the contact pier.

    ------
    The Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 (KLIA) comprises of three main buildings - the Main Terminal Building, the Contact Pier, and the Satellite Building.
    The Contact Pier is marked with prefix A and B for Domestic departures, G and H for International flights.
    The Domestic flights are accessible from Domestic Departures on Level 3 where passengers descend after security check.
    Satellite Building accommodates International flights departing and arriving at Kuala Lumpur International Airport marked with prefix C. Passengers can travel to the Satellite Building via the Shuttle bus service for now.
    The aerotrain service is currently undergoing a replacement program, and new trains are expected to be obtained by 2025.
    1:34 - Terminal KLIA Terminal 1 - KLIA2 Transfer
    ----

    Passengers with connecting flights between Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 can enjoy the free round-the-clock shuttle transfer services between the two terminals. The shuttle route is from Terminal 1 - Terminal 2 - Long Term Car Park (LTCP) - Terminal 1.

    If your layover in KLIA exceeds 8 hours, seize the opportunity to discover the city. Catch the KLIA Ekspres from Terminal 1 for a 28-minute journey to KL Sentral. Once there, embark on a tour of iconic landmarks such as the Petronas Twin Towers. Purchase the Discover Kuala Lumpur Package for a return airport transfer via the KLIA Ekspres and a round-trip on the KL Hop-On Hop-Off bus.
    For a shorter transit, Just jump into the FREE shuttle bus service at Level 1, Gate 2 KLIA or Level 1. head over to the Mitsui Outlet Park KLIA Sepang. The factory outlet shopping mall is located only 6 km/ 9 minutes from KLIA. Don't forget to check the bus schedule/frequency first.
    Explore local favourite cuisines
    Within the terminal, coverage of Wi-Fi is provided free of charge, It also has calm room, smoking lounge, clinic, sensory wall, baby care room, vending massage chairs. There is a natural rainforest in the middle of the terminal, exhibiting the Malaysian rainforests.
    Go on a shopping spree even if you don’t want to leave the airport! There’s something for every traveler - from tempting chocolates to luxury brands and fine jewellery at the duty free outlets, emporiums and souvenir shops.
    2:58 - Relax, Lounge, Sleep

    Thank you❤ your video is so professional and informative. I will go with two different airlines and have under 8 hours layover. Bali to Klia with Air Asia and then Klia Istanbul and then to Munich Germany with Turkish Airlines. So I got to pass trough immigration and maybe different gates, too. Is there a info from Klia at which terminal each airline is usually docking ?
    The most important info I found in your Video was that the shuttle train is currently not working and the airport layout / organisation map.
    What hotel or capsul and which is located outside after pass trough the immigration can you recommend to us (low budget) & how to book? I arrive at around midnight then my transit flight takes off at 8:30 in the morning, so i want to catch some sleep and most important a shower.
    So sleeping areas for free are available too? Showers are integrated in the toilets or only by paid service?
    As I don't know the gate of departure, yet it's smart to book it after security outside or nearby.
    Any tips for us Klia transiters regarding the things asked?
    Keep up the good work. 🙏🏼

      The hotels outside security is cheaper. For example this: www.trip.com/hotels/sepang-hotel-detail-6070771/tune-hotel-klia-aeropolis-airport-hotel/?Allianceid=3795398&SID=20992240&trip_sub1=&trip_sub3=D204171, reasonable price, but you can't walk to the hotel, there's shuttle bus provided.
      Other options are Capsule Transit Sleep Lounge KLIA T1 - Landside and Kepler Club Kuala Lumpur Airport - KLIA T1 Landside which are inside the terminal and more convenient. Shower only RM40 per hour at Kepler Club. www.keplerclub.com/en/our-locations

      I booked over Agoda yesterday the
      Tune Hotel KLIA Aeropolis (Airport Hotel). Usually prices are 30 dollars to 50 dollars. I got it for 15 dollars on an Agoda deal. I'm very lucky. The capsule hotels had double to triple that price. I'm not eager to sleep at a capsule 😂 so of course for a real private room at the airport with 15 dollars, a great deal.
      40 Myr shower is a good tip. So one can bring a sleeping bag by theory and just buy shower and food. Will try another time when more familiar. I'm going to stay some months in Germany and when I return I might go over KLIA again.
      Yes good knowledge for everyone in a similar situation on a budget. 🎉

      Hi, for international to domestic flight transfer, after exiting your aircraft, proceed to immigration, collect your luggage (if it's not checked-through), exit customs, check-in and get boarding pass (if required), head to the domestic departure gate.
      You may not need to take the bus.

    I have planned to fly from Chennai to Cambodia with a layover in Malaysia. My flights are MH181 from Chennai to Malaysia and MH762 from Malaysia to Cambodia. In this case, do I need to collect my luggage and go through immigration again?

    Hi my flight is from Dhaka to KL in Malaysian airlines & KL - Philippines - Vancouver in Philippines airlines on June 26th. Can I collect my boarding pass & luggage from KL airport for the connecting flights without Malaysian visa? As my destination is Vancouver & I don’t plan to cross Malaysian immigration. What should I do? Please help!

      Hi, if the flights are booked on different PNR, then you have to pass immigration and collect your luggage. You will need visa (if your passport country requires it).
      If the flights are on same PNR, then you don't have to.

    Hi,
    I land in KLIA at 8:30 and my next flight is at 13:40 from KLIA2. I only have hand luggage and MDAC already completed, will this be enough time? Also how long did it take you to clear immigration and get baggage, or average time at KL?

    • @theresearchfiles

      5 hours + is enough. Immigration time 1 hour +-, usually less than 1 hour. It took me less than 30 min, as I used the e-gate.
