KUCHING to KL: KIA • KLIA • KL Sentral

Returning to KL!

We picked you up again after coming back from the Borneo Cultures Museum. We spent the afternoon packing up and getting organised for our flight back.

We bade Adelyn's homestay a fond farewell at 3:00pm and made ourselves way to the Kuching International Airport. Here we parked the rental car at the agreed spot and after observing the contactless procedures laid out by Awang Amirul set off with our bags to the Departure area on Level 3.

Here we checked our bags in and waited for the appointed time for us to enter the Departure Hall, which in this case is 4:00pm.

We entered promptly at the appointed time and made our way past Customs and Immigration without incident.

We had plenty of time to spare since ours flight MH2545 was only scheduled to depart at 6:00pm, so we spent some time at the food court at the far end of the hall. Seeing as meals will be served onboard the aircraft later we decided to only have drinks.

During this time Brendan and Cat walked over to Mita Cake House to get five of their delectable Butter cake, were disappointed. In the end they managed to get 3 Kuih Lapis of various flavours.

At 5:00pm we walked over to Gate 5 and took our seats; we were allowed to board the aircraft half an hour later . The aircraft pushed back at 6:00pm and taxied for ten minutes before MH2545 took off at precisely 6:10pm. The flight was largely uneventful and we eventually landed at 7:37pm.

Kudos to Captain Darren and Chief Steward Patrick for a very pleasant flight. We disembarked the aircraft at 7:46pm and were directed to Carousel L to collect our bags. We all went for a much needed potty break before making the long trek to claim our luggage.

We got to Carousel L and to an announcement that the was a delay in the delivery of the bags from MH2545. We only managed to collect our luggage at 8:25pm.

With our KLIA Express train tickets in hand we then headed down to Level 1 where we caught a train at 8:40pm back to the KL Sentral Air Terminal.

Here we hailed a six-seater Grab car for a fare of RM38.00 (approximately USD/8EUR7) to our condo.

Thank you for enduring our series of twelve videos on Kuching, and stay tuned as we travel to the East Coast of Malaysia next month to visit my home town!
