Travel and transport agencies Kuala Lumpur

Kuala Lumpur International Airport is located 45 km south of the capital. It actually comprises two separate terminals, several kilometers apart, but sharing the same airport infrastructure. KLIA is the airport for international airlines and Malaysia Airlines. KLIA2 is the airport for Air Asia and regional low-cost carriers. Check your ticket before you leave to ensure you arrive at the right airport. Both terminals are modern and offer all the services you need for a smooth departure or arrival.

The fastest way to reach downtown Kuala Lumpur from KLIA-KLIA2 airport. Because of the heavy traffic on the outskirts of the capital and the distance from the airport, we strongly recommend taking it. Allow 28 minutes for the journey. There are three intermediate stops before reaching KL Sentral: Bandar Tasik Selatan (bus station), Putrajaya-Cyberjaya and, on the approach to KLIA, Salak Tinggi. Please note that ticket counters are open from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m., but you can buy your ticket online.
