Hey guys,

am looking for the best value option to fly to KL. Heard that MAS has a SGD49 promo going now (with no fuel surcharge as well!).

Good option??

If time/date and baggage are not a constraint, the low cost carriers offer more value. Tigerairways' one-way fares start from SGD29 nett, Jetstar Asia's SGD35 nett and AirAsia's SGD36 nett.

Take the bus.

Even with the promo fares, the airport taxes are high.

Currently, the website offers S$63 each way... S$126... plus about S$300 in tax... and all the super savers are sold out. SQ gives you the same flight for S$382.

MAS and SQ have this route tied up in so much politics that cheap flights are impossible. You can get a better deal flying out of JB.

you should not get greedy in your signature. Forum policy only allows a single hyperlink. I have removed both until you figure out WHICH one you want. - moderator

I am currently in KL and came here by AirAsia.

I paid S$ 205.- which includes a baggage allowance of 25 kg (94.- 2 way)
Xpress boarding and airport taxes.

So if you travel light, you can easily make it for less then S$ 100.- return.

The plane was nice and clean and departure/arrival was in time, although you arrive at LCCT here and not KLIA. (leaving from terminal 1 in SG)
A small hassle though.

Go to their website and check out the different fares on different times/days.

MAS is having a promotion now - www.malaysiaairlines.com.my/

I just bought a ticket to KL - one way $98 inclusive everything. Two way should be double of that, i.e. $196. It's not bad.

Promotion Booking period - 2-15 Feb
Travel period - 18 Mar - 31 Aug
