If you have been in Malaysia before, the chance that you already know about AirAsia. Before the existence of this low cost carrier, MAS or Malaysia Airlines System was proud to be the only carrier in Malaysia.
But the story changed a lot when this new AirAsia emerged with their tagline ‘Now Everyone Can Fly’ which shows that MAS needed to compete with this ‘new kid on the block’.
Whatever the situation, we Malaysians hope that they can compete healthily and to boost our nation’s income and dignity.
Back to AirAsia, if you want the convenient to book the ticket you can go online at the AirAsia website and need to follow a few easy steps to complete the ticket booking process.
Did you know that AirAsia also has their own authorized agents that you can book the flight tickets from. Recently I went to Giant supermarket at Taman Permata, Ampang in Kuala Lumpur and I came across this AirAsia booth but I didn’t ask the staff there whether they’re working with AirAsia or just the agent. But they told me that if I want to get the info or brochures about them I can go to KL Sentral LRT Station.

However at one post office in Wangsa Maju I came across the ads claiming they are the AirAsia agent but they’ll charge you 6 % from the ticket price. I got the names and mobile phone details of them and they are Adie (mobile phone no: +60123464 305 ) and Zamri (Mobile phone no: +60172423 533 ). tIn the ads they say they will send the ticket to you address. You can also book MAS and FireFly (another low cost carrier) tickets. Read more on AirAsia flight tickets online booking…

Trains in Malaysia are operated and managed by KTMB or Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad. From Kuala Lumpur you can go directly to Johor Bahru or Singapore in the South and the northern places like Ipoh, Butterworth and Alor Setar.
You can also board the train to go the to Pahang and Kelantan. The trains do not go to Terengganu. Because of the convenient using the road or highway, most people use their own vehicles or express buses to go to any destination in Malaysia.
However the trains are still exist to serve the needs of the people. The last time I used the train was around 6 years ago from Johor Bahru to Kuala Lipis in Pahang which costed me somewhere around RM30 and this was cheap to me because it was hard ( or not available ) to find an express bus to this destination directly form Johor Bahru. From Kuala Lipis I can get the bus to my hometown in Raub that is just 40 km away.
In Kuala Lumpur the easiest way to get the train probably at KL Sentral Station and this station is not a regular one because here you can get the LRT, Monorail, KTM Commuter, Express Rail Link ( to Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Sepang, Selangor) and definitely the long distance KTMB train to various destinations in Malaysia.
I don’t know exactly where to find all the KTMB authorized agents but recently I came across the KTMB e-Ticket Counter at Giant Supermarket, Taman Permata which is located in Ampang district, Kuala Lumpur and here you can buy the train tickets to any destinations in Malaysia without any additional charges.
