Hi,

want to know if i am the principal holder of this card
1. Alliance Plat - UNLIMITED access to Plaza Premium Lounge KLIA only.

only i can access for free? if i travel with mom for example(no ccard) can she access too?
*
Anybody can enter Plaza Premium Lounge.

Yes, you can enter for FREE into KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge with the Alliance Plat.

As for your mum, if you use the Alliance Plat to enter, then your mum's entry together with you will be charged.

If you have another card that allows you FREE entry to KLIA PPL, then use this said card together with the Alliance Plat to get FREE entry for you and your mum.

Got to plan i.e. if Amex not waiving my annual fees in 2014, I might cancel Amex.

Bro, AMEX sure waive your annual fees since they have done so before.

But planning is good, so go check if AMEX Kris flyer supp card can enter for FREE too.

What I want to know now is which card allows us to enter KLIA2 Plaza Premium Lounge without needing Priority Pass Membership card.

This may sound like a stupid question but do you guys who normally go to such PPL when you are going to depart or after you have landed?

I thought that most ppl will normally be rushing to the airport and have not much time to stop by and when landing, u don't want to leave your luggage at the baggage machine too long unattended.

Personally, I have never used the PPL before, so just curious to hear from those who did.
*
Mostly depart. Especially good went we go overseas. The lounge I frequent most after LCCT is SG Changi Skyview (click here to see some photos), food not too bad, spacious and got lots of types of liquor including wine. Sometimes I would even nap there if my flight back to KL is in the late evening, hahaha

As for the luggage, for LCCT case, there is a PPL that is outside the departure/arrival hall, so collect your luggage first.

QUOTE(bearbear @ Dec 30 2013, 04:30 PM)
For myself, departure only. Arrival i can't wait to go home tongue.gif

Usually i depart from my place 2.45-3 hours before flight time, arrive airport 2 hours before flight, check in takes 15-45 minutes. Spend my time in PPL until 15 minutes before flight time then walk towards the gate.
*
Usually if arrive LCCT, first thing on my mind is get out to the open air to take a smoke.

QUOTE(b00n @ Dec 30 2013, 04:50 PM)
Anyway, I am one type of person whom doesn't like to be late or to rush so in better word - better safe than sorry type of guy so I usually arrive 2~3hrs before flight even though I have checked in using web. So I used a lot of PPL whenever I take my flight (except for KLIA domestic flight)
*
Me same same, arrive at least 2hrs before departure - and once reach LCCT just before counter close as I was stuck in a very bad jam due to the Moto GP.

Based on the citibank website, for the Citi CB Platinum Card, there is no mention of complimentary access to the PPL. Hence, u will have to bear the charges if u use the Citi CB Platinum Card.

Aiyah, you ask Citibank CB= CASH BACK right, of course not.

Citibank Platinum can enter KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge for FREE, used it 2 days ago.

And surprisingly, HSBC Visa Signature quota still available.

I just posted at my facebook page https://www.facebook.com/GenXGenYGenZ that I managed to use 5 of my credit cards to get FREE entries for my children. my mum and myself into KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge.

And I have yet to receive my Alliance Bank Visa Infinite Priority Pass Membership card. So I called CS and she told me I had to fill up a form and I told her I did that when I applied for the ABB VI. So she said she will sent the PPMC to me smile.gif

Oh by the way, someone did ask before if there is a shower room at KLIA Plaza Premium Lounge, and the answer is yes.

Bro, can't access FB at office.  Will check it out at home later.  For the benefit of those who can't access FB also at home, is it as simple as

Card A - swipe for yourself first
Card B - Tell staff at PPL - swipe for your wife entry
Card C - Tell staff at PPL - swipe for your mum entry
Card D & E - Tell staff at PPL - swipe for your children entry

No need so susah, say 1 time enough - I want use 5 cards for 5 entries.

Local lounge are more lenient while its not quite possible for overseas lounge. You may refer to bro Gen-X. He's using several cards for several family members locally. Can get tips from him on how to "nego". rclxms.gif
*
hkboey, you are right, local lounges very lenient, they allowed me to use two or more Priority Pass Membership Cards plus other credit cards to get FREE entries for my family members. Bro, no need nego, just tell them how many entries you need and give them the cards.

But Skyview Lounge at Changi T1 won't allow me to use 2 Priority Pass Membership Card for 2 entries sad.gif Actually, I am back to having 3 PPMC cards.

wfyt - check out my facebook page post dated January 12 - https://www.facebook.com/GenXGenYGenZ

Now, like I mentioned above, Skyview Lounge won't let me use 2 PPMC, so what I did was use one of my PPMC card to let my son enter Skyview Lounge (near Gate D) and then I head over to Rainforest Lounge (near Gate C) and use the other PPMC card to enter it myself. Click here to read about it and see photos of Rainforest Lounge at Changi T1.

To ALL,

Same question keep popping out, can we give our card to someone else to enter without us being present? Legally no, because most card require us to sign on a slip, so if you are not there to sign it, that means the person carrying your card need to forge your signature. Moreover, they will ask to see your boarding pass, malu if the person ask why the name on boarding pass different from the card.

Now, I said no to above, but it does not mean it cannot be done - up to your own imagination how to overcome it.

you can bring 10 people also; but you did not say FREE, so the question is - did you have to pay for your guests' entries? If no, you are my hero bro! tongue.gif

UOB VI's PPMC 6 FREE entries. Now, if he did get to use 3 out of the 6 FREE quota in one go.... I agree, this is THE CARD.

1) actually cant use 6 free quotas at one go right?? i doubt they will let.  hmm.gif
2) any how can any of the cimb/da vi to go in lcct pl except for vii?
3) how does the alliance premium debit card quota works? renewed every 1st of the month? stated in the booklet first 70 per month for lcct.
4)Alliance Platinum Debit Card not longer can access pl?
*
1) By right no since the privilege is for Principal card holder only. So how can one card has 6 principals?

2) Not sure if LCCT PPL can, go call CIMB customer service for details. Selected lounge(s) only.

3) Yes, reset 1st of the month BUT please be aware than soon we'll be departing at KLIA2 and there's no guarantee that Alliance Debit Card will have airport lounge privilege once KLIA2 in is operation.

4) NO.

Sorry bro, late reply. Just got internet connection today.

Bro, my Alliance Premium Debit Card has name embossed similar to my other credit cards. For Alliance Premium CreditCard, I cannot remember if they "swipe" or record manually... and I just enter LCCT PPL with it about a week ago!!! Getting old..... also because I used my other Alliance VI PPMC and UOB PPMC to get another 2 access for my children and those we need to sign on a slip.

QUOTE(namh @ Jan 29 2014, 10:31 AM)
Priority Pass also use to enter Plaza Premium Lounge, right?

this thread not talking about Plaza Premium only.. it is just, Plaza Premium is available in most of the Lounge in Malaysia Airport and several other country.. even for KLIA, Priority Pass can be use on Plaza Premium Lounge only.. you cant use it to enter MAS Golden Lounge..

You are spot on bro in your above reply.

Revision to Priority Pass access for UOB

Effective 1st April 2014
Privilage Banking Visa Infinite: Twelve (12) complimentary entries per year
Visa Infinite: Four (4) complimentary entries per year

I reconfirm above. Spoke to CS couple hours ago.

I tell you, the LCCT Plaza Premium Lounge inside the departure hall is not worth entering if you want a reasonable good meal. When I was there, they only had curry puff, spring roll, tuna sandwich and Maggi Hot Cup (of all flavors - Vege). As for beer, it has been downgraded to Tiger; and worst of all, they no longer offer the cheapo so called premium Kings ice cream too.

When you are in LCCT, I recommend that you go to the PPL before immigration and not the one inside the departure hall.

And I jsut added another Airport Lounge Credit Card to my collection smile.gif Click here to my Facebook Page to see the welcome pack.

You can always request for waiver with UOB. And like you said, Alliance VI Reward Points better and on top of that we get 2X for local spending plus UNLIMITED FREE entries.

Read first page, AEON Gold Card 6 FREE entries to KLIA. If want unlimited FREE entries to KLIA, try Alliance Plat. And like tifosi mentioned

RHB Plat 4X Free entries to selected PPL nationwide BUT I guess you should check what is the annul fee waiver requirement for second and subsequent years..

Any why is the list "super" outdated? As far as I know, the list of cards mentioned in Post#1 that enables one to enter PPL (nationwide) still stand are as of today. However, the list may not have included other cards if it is not reported here. As for the CIMB i, this card is really exclusive and it was mentioned in my blog laugh.gif

anyway, what i was trying to say is that we should post more on other overseas lounges are not part plaza premium
so of them are lounges business and first class passenger which are also partners of priority pass.
not everyday plaza premium plaza premium plaza premium - there's nothing to talk about

i would be more delighted if genxyz can share with us how many champagnes he sipped in these lounges
at least there's a story to tell
agreed?

Bro, firstly, it's Gen-X here. There are other members going by nickname GenX and Gen_X and etc here at LYN forum.

As for PPL, agree that LCCT PPL inside the departure hall is not worth entering if you want a reasonable good meal; but the one before immigration is not too bad.

However, the renovated KLIA PPL is OK. The food is okay plus it offers pastries which are pretty good. Wide selection of liquor and it even has freshly brewed coffee served by a barrister with coffee art too. Power points are available near most seats too.

As for overseas airport lounge with our Priority Pass Membership Card, well, it depends on which countries.

In USA, we can enter United Airlines' United Club with the PPMC. I was on First Class Domestic ticket and was not eligible to enter for FREE!!! Had to use my PPMC card to enter. Well, it's worst than LCCT PPL as far as food is concerned! Click here to my article titled MY USA Trip 2013 to see some photos of the United Club Lounge in LA Terminal T7.

Click here to my article titled How I Benefited From My Credit Cards For My Macau Trip. In this article I posted photos of the Macau Lounge and also the food bar at LCCT PPL before immigration.

We can also use our PPMC to enter Hong Kong airport Lounge; but I used my wife's PPMC and my PPMC entries to allow my dad and mum to enter instead. So did not get the opportunity to take any photos inside.

Click here to see photos of Sky View Lounge Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 1. This is the lounge I frequent most and it is located near Gate D. And I have mentioned before, in this lounge, besides beer and liquor, it also offer red and white Wine and champagne too.

Click here to read my article The Best Credit Cards For FREE Entries to Airport Lounges where I posted photos of the Rainforest Lounge at Changi Airport Terminal 1 located near Gate C. I prefer SkyView Lounge anytime as I dislike the dark ambiance at Rainforest Lounge.

hahaha, from the above, my experience with Airport Lounges worldwide is like pathetic. I bet the ones in Middle East are fantastic. It would be great if you guys can post/upload images of Airport Lounge(s) you guys have visited.

I'll be going to JFK with American Airlines from Paris on Economy, I wonder if there is an airport lounge I can enter with the PPMC in Paris. And since I'll be flying business class (for FREE) from LHR to KUL, I guess I won't be needing the PPMC card in London.

Hi Gen-X

any way to waive Maybank AMEX Plat annual fees? is it similar to CiTi policy (call to waive)?

and AMEX Plat can only enter KLIA and LCCT PPL? How about overseas?

How many pax can enter the PPL per card?

its not in the t&c and product disclosure sheet found in the link below
http://www.americanexpress.com.my/amx_info...CB-CardBenefits

Bro, sorry for the late reply as I just got back. As for AMEX Plat CC, I guess b00n whould be a better person to ask. But if you do spend like RM50K, I guess no problems in waiving the card annual fee. CAll 1800 88 9559 AMEX CS and ask.

FYI, I just requested for my Gold card annual fee to be waived and for the first time in like more than 10 years to did not approve it on the spot but instead I was told it would go to management for a decision. Can't blame them as have not use the card for the last 3 years. Anyway, CS said in order to get annual fee waiver for my Gold Charge card, I need to like just spend RM300/month with it.
