just wanna ask the opinion of you all that have flown to Australia via Airasia

My flight departure time to melbourne is 10.10p.m
and my working hour finish at 6.30p.m

so i was thinking what if i take cab ride from KL to LCCT which estimated 1.30 hours inclusive of jam

then i will be reaching LCCT at 8p.m

as i know counter close at 9.10p.m where there is APP (advance processing or something like that) which I don't know how long does it take

Do you all think that it will be rushing? Is it enough time for me to check in?

You can do web chk in right?? Upon reaching at the airport, you can just drop your luggage. Maybe can ask your boss to release you 30 minutes earlier.

You dare to gamble on 6.30pm KL traffic ?? I wouldn't.

1) Web check in.
2) Use KLIA Transit from KL Sentral or Tasik Selatan to avoid 6.30pm KL traffic. 
3) Ask for early release from boss if you can.

I have considered to take KLIA transit but after checking the schedule it also takes 1.30 hours (including the exchanging line and waiting time). aiks

If u web check in, should n 't be worry too much, the web check in note does work as Valid boarding pass (refer to AA), not sure about AAX, correct me if i am wrong.

The worst case u arrive at LCCT @9:00pm, u still can drop in the luggage, but will take some risk, unless u  travel frequently known where to look for  counter to stamp passport and departure gate. But rushing to a/port always not encourage. The risk behind alway too costly compare to the risk u take.

For flight to Australia and NZ, the web check in notes DOESN'T work as valid boarding pass (I have checked airasia website)

The counter to drop n stamp I know where is the area but you know LCCT likes to give people surprises !

+1, this is the case for some of the flights of AAX. My 1st trial with AAX was a short trip back to NZ last year. You'd have to be there so that they can issue you a "certified" piece of paper. Have to be there earlier though.

But yeah, (just to rant) some of the guys in LCCT could not just show some courtesy at all. If they want to work in the customer service industry, they should have expected the stress level especially working for airline companies. As a frequent flyer, the standard of "courtesy" of some of the guys in LCCT is just unbearable. In a simple word, rude.  shakehead.gif

Digitalz!~ i really need your advice on this.

How earlier were you there for you to get the "certified" piece of paper for your NZ trip?

As my flight to Melbourne depart at 10.30p.m, the counter will close at 9.30p.m SHARP.

My working hour end at 6.30p.m so my plan will be, web check in then make myself there by 8.30p.m.

Do you think I can make it right in time to get the certified piece of paper (I guess this is the APP)

Like someone mentioned earlier, you dare to bet on the traffic of KL? This, I don't.

FYI, I was there earlier by more than 3 hours as I dropped by from KLIA coming back from one of my other trips. 1st trial on AAX going back to NZ straight after my trip.

Also, normally it's 3 hours before the flight as in the last hour, they'd close up the counters for good. Better be safe than late.

Ample time. This is the document check process - to make sure you have valid passport, valid visa (if needed), passport's expiry more than 6 mths, etc, etc, the usual stuff. All international flights need to undergo this check for obvious reasons. Pretty standard, just look for the relevant counters.

ok! thanks!

Was a bit scared of by its APP process.

Like digital mention better safe than late. 8:30 check in is cutting it close.... 40min for boarding, ur not the only person waiting in line to check in. At least reach there by 7:30... Ask ur boss u want to leave early ot take time off.

I asked already.
Stupid GM said NO!!!!

8.30p.m to drop my luggage and get my boarding pass verified which is different from check in as i will do the web-check in. biggrin.gif

Which part of KL are you from ? If you must take taxi from KL at 6.30pm rush hour, use the Putrajaya Highway entry at Kg Pandan interchange or Salak south interchange.

Pavilion KL

Plan to aboard taxi at Jalan Imbi then use backlane to cut into ' Putrajaya Highway entry at Kg Pandan interchange ' or the MEX highway

board the taxi and take MEX ... at that time, forget about sg besi... even then that jam section leading up to sg besi in kg pandan is damn jam adi... stuck 15-20mins there. MEX to KLIA quite the distance think 40mins  for speeding.

Pavilion on Bukit Bintang side no jam, I use that road everyday to back home (around 5 - 6 pm)

But on Jalan Raja Chulan side, sure pack.

This is the best road to skip some of the jam - http://g.co/maps/kf5mp
