Yup, the spread is much better than PPL. I was surprised when the CS asked me if I would like to try Flight Club last Thursday morning when I went to PPL. Flight Club looks more like a restaurant with classier deco and setup than the usual PPL to me. They also have a lot of different liquor and wines there but Im not sure if it is available for us. I didnt request as it was 7am in the morning. Oh and the view is on the other side which I think is better than the old PPL.

I dont need coupons for both my Pbb VS and VI to enter KLIA PPL.

Both Terminal 1 Westhall and Southhall also got lounge, which one you entered?

You can actually. The counter staff will request to see your boarding pass. Not sure if they will mind your used one and let u in. Havent u eaten enough from the flight and PPL in HK?

Never tried before. Usually Im rushing to go back. No more mood to sit in the lounge anymore. Do try and let us know here.

Penang airport lounge area abit far off. Wont get malu one lar.

Thats what I call maximising your PPL access. This guy is a champion.




SINGAPORE, Sept 17: A jobless Malaysian man was handed a two-week jail term after he pleaded guilty to three out of 31 charges of forging mobile boarding passes to enter various lounges at Changi Airport.

The Straits Times reported today that Raejali Buntut who overslept at a Changi Airport lounge and missed his AirAsia flight back to Kuala Lumpur had decided to stay in the departure transit area on Aug 21.

For almost three weeks – 18 days until last Wednesday – he remained in transit by using 31 forged mobile boarding passes to enter various lounges in the airport’s terminals, said the report.

The report said a district court heard Friday that Raejali, 33, had checked in at close to midnight and went to the Plaza Premium Lounge in Terminal 1 (T1), using his boarding pass and his Priority Pass issued by Citibank.


The court was not told why Raejali, a former business development manager with Royale Consultant Management in Singapore, wanted to stay at the airport.

The report said since his boarding pass was no longer valid, he decided to forge boarding passes by downloading images of mobile boarding passes issued by two airlines – Cathay Pacific and Singapore Airlines – from the Internet, and used an image editing software on his laptop to alter them.

Raejali inserted his name, a false flight number and a false destination on the fake mobile boarding passes, before sending them to his phone.

The report said he had gone into the Plaza Premium Lounge, the Sats Premier Lounge and the Dnata Lounge at T1 before going to the Ambassador Transit Lounge at T3.

Last Tuesday, the report said, a staff member at the Dnata Lounge called police when she suspected Raejali’s misdeeds as he attempted to enter the same lounge for the fourth time.

It was reported that Raejali’s sentence was backdated to the date of his remand last Friday and he could have been jailed for four years and fined per charge. — Bernama

Nolar...more like a freeloader. I also dont understand how one could stay at the airport for 2 weeks. No matter how comfy the lounge is.

I dont think there are any issues staying more than 3 hours. I have tried overseas but not in KLIA/KLIA2. Anyway, you wont want to stay long in small lounges like the one after security checks in KLIA 2.

So far, no issues for me.

GM at KLIA2 is outside before passing immigration checkpoint ?

I see that the food selection is much better, but have to leave much earlier in order to pass immigration and get to departure area. Never been there before.

You are right. Citi Prestige annual fees cannot be waived. But I have offsetted mine before using points, but it requires an obscene amount of points (I forgot how much).

I just got back from a trip to Sydney. Seems like access to PPL is only granted to one credit card from a particular bank at one time. Meaning that even if you have 3 different credit cards with PPL access from the same bank, you can only use one at the same time only. These are the new rules according to the counter staff started 3 weeks ago.

Then sure can. So now, there is no point holding more than 1 credit card from the same bank anymore.

Applies to all bank credit cards.

The one after the sky bridge next to McD. It's a lousy ppl with limited food and drinks but its nearest to the international departure gates. I haven't tried GM before because I always come late so don't want to risk waiting to pass security checks.

Any other recommendations for KLIA 2? IINM there are only two ppls after security checks at KLIA 2 right?

Nowadays, PPLs are like pasar malams. Crowded to the max, especially the one at KLIA. The real high end lounges are like MAS Golden lounge that has limited access to only business/ first class passsengers.

Wow.. you have access to GL? Are you flying business class or using enrich miles?

Nolar bro... Like me, sometimes after I get bored inside I come out for a walk then go back in. But tbh, they dont really care because usually the front desk is full of people queing to get in.

Tbh, the PPLs in Malaysia are too crowded nowadays. Its time for banks and credit cards providers to start reviewing access to them. You dont see such situations happening at lounges in foreign countries.
