Thanks for your reply.

If you have premier status, then ambank priority banking signature cards are better.... unlimited, no conditions, and covers almost the whole stable of ppl lounges internationally....

Except for domestic.....lol

Presume your bags are checked through....

Klia.....on arrival, most likely MTB, international.....dont leave the international transit area....take the aerotrain to the satellite building, can use either the ppl or flight club....can use either the arrival or departure boarding pass.....

The malindo flight (presume domestic) will depart from MTB domestic, so take the aerotrain back, go through transit immigration into the domestic area....and go to gate....

Note the transit immigration can get long queues, so allow adequate time.... suggest you start moving back to domestic 1hr before departure time....

Like I said above, klia (should really call it klia1).... strangely, aax Indonesia also operates from klia....not klia2!

Malindo group including parent lion moved out from klia2 2 years ago, for better connectivity....as they started code share with tk, qr, ey, ana, Oman....

The new ppl next to aerotel is the newest.... haven't used it, as it does not have shower facility....

Certainly looks bigger than the gateway ppl and wellness spa.....

Restricted entry since many cc have not add this lounge to their portfolio....

Multiple cards from the same bank can use for my friends/family enter PPL free?

I think it depends on the policy if the bank....I think at least for ambank, it's one entry per day per member, irrespective of how many cards you have....

Nope. I use two Ambank cards, one for myself one for my father to enter PPL

That's good.... someone mentioned they declined to accept 2 cards from ambank after the recent change of conditions....might want to check they don't charge you for one paid entry....

Maybank VI can, although not stated in Maybank's website...no shower so I decided to use the old gateway lounge....

eh..wait, I know Maybank no longer has Priority Pass but still have Plaza Premium Lounge right?
Just curious of there are free lounge access for Maybank card holders.

Lucky my flight has changed, no more 5 hours layover in Attarturk. Changed the date and stay in a hotel instead.
*
There is no ppl in ist....check their website for their stable of lounges, and Maybank site for those allowed entry....

hi friends. i stop klia2 and my gate is near the wellness spa. is it possible to go the other plaza premium lounge which is further? i try on first flight but seems need to pass security check so i skip
*
the small ppl lounge at L pier is past security....so basically, only for passengers departing from l pier....you cannot go back after security...

whereas wellness spa is BEFORE security, so people departing from L pier can use, and just walk back to l pier to board.....

Ok thanks. I also feel cannot go through. The wellness spa food is so bad.
*
The wellness spa is never supposed to be a ppl type lounge....it's a.... wellness spa!.... massage.... there is no space to be a proper lounge....

They know food is bad, hence you can get food from a special menu at the bar just outside the lounge....which unfortunately is just as bad ...

Strangely, the best lounges and food is landside at klia2.....

I tried once before. Can not with PPL. May be different PPL possible but I wouldn't know.

But I have notice different PPL may have different rules. For example. Heathrow's Terminal 5 PPL doesn't accept Ambank but Terminal 4 would. Or was it the other way around?

SCB priority bank CC was previously with Priority Pass. Now with Loungekey. LK linked to the CC itself so one less card to carry.
*
The ppl group has grown very big in recent years...and has many lounges....

Each bank negotiates with ppl and indicate which lounges the bank wants to provide to their customers...

Eg Maybank offers a wide range both local and international lounge access, and quickly added the new ppl aerotel at klia2....

Ambank now basically is a card for international travels only....

Whereas rhb is purely domestic only....

When I first using Ambank VI, I can actually have unlimited entry per day.
Initially the clause was 3x overseas swipes, then changed into spending RM500 / entry.
Got once, I enter 3 times a day, while transiting in Sg.
From Penang PPL, then Changi TGM, and followed by Changi PPL.

Somewhere last year, Ambank amended the clause and limit to 1 use per day.
End up I applied for RHB WMC for local use.

For priority banking, I believe it is also once per day, better confirm from their T&C.
Since they removed Penang, Kuching, KK, and limited to 5x entry per year, there is not much usage for this card anymore.
Redemption points for air miles also increase from 5000 to 7000 (40% increase).
It was one of the top 3 CC for this segment.
Now, the only use for me is for my parents to enter PPL while travel overseas (using my sub card).
*
Yes, the ambank priority banking cards are now only for overseas travels, especially for supplementary cards....and with the devaluation of points, I stop using it....better with Maybank premier cards....

One point is still not clear....it's one entry per cardholder, or per card....if you have both the vi and wmc, can make 2 entries?

Priority Pass and LoungeKey. Both roughly the same with about 1000 lounge, give and take. Some people say they are related but i wouldn't know.

With PP, you have to carry an extra card.

With LK, your credit card is the entry pass. Simpler.
*
Lk is a subsidiary of pp, and operates like ppl, just linking with the cc and no need an extra card like pp....I got a feeling they will gradually roll all cc linked access to lk..... leaving pp purely as a stand alone bought membership scheme....

how about main card and supplementary card?

eg: Public bank VI and Ambank VI

can it be use for same day, same time, same lounge?

For ambank at least, supps are considered separate entities from principal, so counted separately....
