The main problem is that one of the children is 13 and appears to be classed as an adult when reserving rooms. Other than booking two rooms has any one got any suggestion re hotels ar similar experience. This does not appear to be as big a problem in other parts of Malaysia we are going to. Regards.

Hi all, I'm off to KL in March and was thinking about buying a laptop and tablet while there. My question is - do you think it's worth buying from somewhere like Low Yat Plaza? Is it actually cheaper and will I be buying the real thing? Should I look at other malls perhaps? I will be staying at the Traders hotel so will be central to everything. I will otherwise be buying here in Dubai. Thanks! Natalie

Hi need your help! I am travelling from SG to KL via Jetstar on 01 Dec and on the same day, 2.5 hours from my arrival in KL, I have a flight from KL to Langkawi via Air Asia. My question is, as I know that Langkawi is Intl airport, is it correct that I do not need to come out from airport at KL and go thru KL immigration, instead, I can just pick up my luggage and straight away go to transit / domestic arrival area to catch my flight to Langkawi. When I reach Langkawi, then that's the only time I will have to go thru immigration and get my passport stamped. Is my understanding correct? I only worried that I wil miss my Langkawi flight due to time constraint. Thanks in advance for your reply!

Hi everyone, I am looking into a citytrip for a week, possibly in KL. So questions for those who know more about KL properly? Is a week enough/too much to spend in KL? Is there a nice party scene? Wishing you all a great week and thanks in advance

Hey, We are looking to travel to Taman Negara from KL on the sleeper train to Jerantut, and then taking the bus to Kuala Tahan. Spending the day there, and then returning that night to Jerantut to get the sleeper back to KL... this seems to be possible, but I have a few questions and hope you guys can help! Firstly, if we choose to get the bus there from KL (as the sleeper arrives at 3.30am!), it will get us to the jetty for about 9.30am. Will this get us there in time for the boat trip into the park? Once we are in the park, can we just do our own thing or should we/could we join a group? If we decide to take a boat trip upstream, what can we expect to see, and will that leave us enough time to return to get our train back (which leaves at midnight)? Is there anything else we should know? Many thanks in advance for your help and advice

Hi, our flight arrives at 23:35 hrs(saturday) @ LCCT (Air Asia) . We have our booking at hotel in the Bukit Bintang area. However due to the odd arrival time of our flight I'm a bit confused. Firstly, we are staying for 2 full days in KL ( Sunday & Monday) our departure flight is scheduled at 3:00 pm Tuesday. As Petronas twin towers are closed on Monday, so Sunday is the only option open to us. I've read on this forum that you need to queue up from around 7-7:30 am in order to get a ticket for the tour , the day being a Sunday I think its better to start at say 6:00-6:30 am ??? Anyways, I have checked on bus services from LCCT to KL Sentral. Aerobus has their last bus @ 1:30 am arriving at 2:30 am while Skybus has services at 2:15 am arriving at 3:30 am . Now to reach twintowers I assume the best way is LRT "Putra green line" geting down at KLCC. The train service starts from 6:00am considering the first Train arrives at Sentral at 6:20-25 hrs .. which of the following will be the best possible action: 1. we stay back at airport lobby catch the 4:30 am Aerobus arriving at 5:30am @ Sentral then taking the LRT @ 6:20-25 hrs reaching KLCC & queuing up by 7:00am OR 2. We take the 2:15 skybus arriving at 03:30 hrs or 1:30 Aerobus arriving at 02:30 hrs and wait at KL SEntral for the LRT train to arrive. Is it safe @ Sentral at that time of the day?? We also have a fair few baggage to consider notin massive but still decent enuff. Please suggest accordingly. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks & Regards Sreeza
