Kuala Lumpur International Airport KULWMKK

Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) is one of Southeast Asia’s major hubs. Malaysia Airlines is based at KLIA Terminal 1 and is a oneworld member, so many full-service and alliance-style connections revolve around T1. AirAsia and AirAsia X operate from Terminal 2, making KUL especially important for low-cost, regional and medium-haul connections across ASEAN, South Asia, North Asia and Australia. For transit passengers, the practical distinction is not international versus domestic as much as Terminal 1 versus Terminal 2 and through-ticket versus self-transfer. A protected connection inside T1 can be straightforward; a T1/T2 change often means a landside move, new security, and possibly collecting and rechecking bags.
