Day 2 : Kuala Lumpur to Bangkok, Thailand

...journey begins...


The taxi driver arrives at our doorstep about 630am. I was pretty sure he was speeding!


It is a good day, as the cloud said.


Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you...
(drum roll)

Boarding ... walking to the airplane, can save cost this way, perhaps?



Here is a COOL photo, taken by Ethan




Ignore the flight attendant, this airplane is really new, 3 months old as the captain announced later in the flight.


At about 25mins after the flight took off from LCCT, with the weather 75% clear, we flew by Pulau Pinang. As you can also see, the Penang Bridge on the middle left side of the photo.


As we just about to land, the flight attendant came around to give out this form.

Arrival Card


No visa needed for Malaysian who are there for leisure as you are allow to stay in the country for 30 days from date of arrival.

This form has to part, Arrival Card and Departure Card, we have to fill in both side. Also, Thailand custom requires THB 500 airport tax paid upon departure from Bangkok International Airport.

With all the excitement we had, our flight got delayed by 20mins due to the air traffic at Bangkok International Airport for the arrival "some VIP" for the King's Birthday.

Local time: 0840hrs (GMT+7)
