This facility is made possible through the airline’s collaboration with Express Rail Link (ERL), which runs the KLIA Ekspres train from the transportation hub to KL International airport (KLIA).

If you’re flying on Malaysia’s hybrid airline Malindo Air from Kuala Lumpur you can now check in at KL Sentral, Kuala Lumpur’s transportation hub, and do some shopping in the interim.

This facility is made possible through the airline’s collaboration with Express Rail Link (ERL), which runs the KLIA Ekspres train from the transportation hub to KL International airport (KLIA).

In a joint statement the two companies said check-in is available until three hours before flights at the KLIA Ekspres departure hall. The passengers’ luggage is checked through to their final destination.

“The cut-off time of three hours before departure would be necessary to facilitate their check-in baggage transfer to KLIA,” the statement stated.

Travellers must buy the KLIA Ekspres train ticket to use this service. 

The train fare is RM55 (US$12.35) one way; passengers will receive discounted fares on KLIA Ekspres at RM40 (US$8.95) for each passenger with a minimum purchase of three tickets.
