After checking out of the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Kuala Lumpur, we travelled by LRT and KLIA Express to the international airport. The journey took an hour in total, with a short wait at KL Sentral. We flew to Singapore with an airline that was new to me - Jetstar Asia Economy Class.
Langkawi Airport is a typical small tourist airport. The routes are short, and the lines, at least on this Saturday, weren't long either. We flew to Kuala Lumpur on a Malaysia Airlines Economy Class Boeing 737-800.
The hotel's own shuttle bus took us from the Grand Mercure Roxy to Terminal 1 of Singapore Changi International Airport without any traffic jams or delays. From there, we travelled to Langkawi on an AirAsia Economy Class Airbus A320-200.
The plan was for us to land in Zurich at 4.30 pm, coming from Berlin. Due to the strong hurricane Niklas, we arrived three hours later. From Gate A81 we walked to the SWISS Senator Lounge before boarding the SWISS Economy Class Airbus A340-300 to Singapore.
As a summary of my first First Class flight with Emirates from Bangkok to Hong Kong, I wrote that I really wanted to try out the First Class experience on a longer route. Now the time had finally come! You can find out what an experience Lufthansa First Class in the Boeing 747-400 is in the following trip report.
The Turkish Airlines Boeing 777-300ER Comfort Class was one of the first premium economy seats on the airline market. Thanks to an upgrade, we were able to experience the premium cabin and service on the short flight from Dubai to Istanbul.
